There's an old saying in the art field ... If it looks wrong it is wrong and vice versa.

Thanks, Jay. I need to give it some further thought and inspection. I definitely don't want to cut corners by not cutting corners :-) However, and I'm sure I'll get yelled at for this, I'm not sure that a bit of subtle faceting necessarily bothers me. If I were going for a "carved from a single block of wood" appearance that'd be one thing, but even where it's perfectly rounded over my hull is clearly made from strips, and my color selections and accents highlight, rather than camouflage, that essential "strip" nature of its construction.
