Another ship in a bottle (with video!)

Julia Morley‘s ship in a bottle is just as impressive as the first one I’ve blogged. What’s cool is her time-lapse video showing how it was built. I’m sure many of you have seen time-lapse videos of large models being built, but one like this must be a first.
