Finish a Violin - The "Hummingbird"

Finished this violin this week. I had carved the neck and fingerboard some years ago, and decided it was time to make a body. The back is flamed maple (one piece), ribs maple, bridge maple, top spruce, fingerboard, chin rest, tail piece are blood wood, and saddle and nut are ebony. I call it the "Hummingbird" because of the hummingbird inlay in the back (MOP and abalone). Used planetary geared tuners (also fine tuners because I don't yet know how well the geared tuners will work - and I dislike friction pegs).
