To quote others here, wow!  This instrument is shaping up to be  a unique yet fully integrated package. It isn't about just one or two cool features, it's that every design element is both awesome by itself and in combination with the others to form an amazing total result.  I really like the black finish on this one, as well.

The Oort cloud is taking shape on your bass:

 
There's this bag of random circles here, must be yours  
 
Hope the belts of Jupiter survive. If not, we'll try again. This bronze mother of pearl doesn't have the figuring very deep. I sure hope it works, 'cause it looks awesome.  
 
And the Sun has started to take shape in the fingerboard:
 
Sorry for the general cruddy quality of this pic. It's hanging a little high there and I almost missed it.  
 
This is gonna be so cool!

So the sun is shining!

 This will brighten up more when the rest of the sanding is done - there's still some traces of glue on there, but it looks really, really cool. Or is it hot?  Also an in-process shot of the inlay material during the first sand down.  

 Some solar wind there!

So very cool.
 
Can't wait to see finished pictures of this.

Just needs to be said again. Stunning neck inlay idea and execution.
