Here are a couple of pics of another Gatsby I made up over the weekend. Rather experimental as it includes embedded glitter to add a sparkle under lighting but seems to work ok in the technical sense. Any thoughts

Nice one, Trapper! I tried using glitter in CA on a glue joint, but it squeezed too tight and the glitter looked like bits of dirt in the joint. Your idea looks waaaaay better!
