Nice pepping! looks real sharp. . .
It looks awesome with the lantern inside of it!
I would plan on at the very least resining it before you move on to the next piece so that all your hard work doesn't get destroyed (stepped on, eaten by a dog, soda spilled on it maybe even broken by a hackey sack? XD) but that is my reccomendation.
Also I know how you feel as far as being stressed out yeesh I've got a ton of crap hitting me right now. . . You'll get through it though.
Glad to see this is still coming along,
