Bloody Hell indeed :-) I actually saw this model (or one very like it) at the Guildford S.M.E. show earlier this summer and had the opportunity to chat to the owner briefly. I do not recall whether or not it is the same man, but it seems likely - I can't imagine there being two independent creations like that...
