A stunning build, with lots of awesome detail, not sure I could build at such a small scale anymore, so very well done indeed

Thank you,

Canopy is formed and fits like the glove. I did it for a first time and canopy looks great. I am happy. First try was learning experience, but second try was sucess.

I holded the scrap sheet of plastic from some packaging in my hands and heat it above the gas stove to the point is sag and then quickly pull it over my plug. Beforehead, I practiced it few times without the flame to be sure nothing will surprise me.

I used the same method, only my Former i made out of a piece of wood.
No 3D Printer at that time and no Software knowledge to design the canopy. Wood had to do.
A 3d printed one is of course more precise.
Well done. It looks perfect
