Sorry johnpenn - posted at the same time. YES - you've got the major flaw (IMO) - the glass. I sort of realised half way through the render and didn't have time to change it and render again. It would certainly look better with individual panes. And the tail - you're right again. You wouldn't believe what a pain in the ass (no pun intended) that tail was, so I was glad just to get it there! But it does need to be more curved. Thanks for the input! :)
