I'm going through checking out other's stuff for the first time and I'm asking myself, "What the heck did I get myself into?" It looks really, really good and just can't believe how fast you doing it all. I'll be doing good just to do one model with a little bit of detail. You rock!

Nice work mate.

Why not sort all of your scene stuff into layers? At least then you can keep everything 'in place' and just turn visibility on or off. You'll only need them all on for final renders. Keep going!
