Color is great. Nice scoop above the cheek piece. Cheek piece is a little long, cramped your carving a bit. I do that from time to time as well.

Sweet! Very nicely done. Like the carving and the patina. I too want to build a Jacob Dickert. I’ve collected a very components over the years and many photos from sellers on TOW. Yours is a great reference also.

Looks real good except way too much fake brass black.

Great looking Dickert. Architecture and carving look spot on. All around very pleasing.

Very nicely done, sir.  I particularly like the color and patina of the wood, and your carving is very well executed.
