Nice :I can relate!

Looks good to me even with big store ply wood.  Goes to show you don't always have to purchase the expensive stuff.

Yes, but it's really hard to find stuff that is barely usable (like 1 sheet out of 10), and it's also risky to use because at 4mm overall thickness the veneer is very thin and likely to break off just for the heck of it. I'm doing a more intricate pic right now, so far the veneer has chipped in seven places. But I make the best of it, as I have no other sources for the wood (and couldn't afford it even if I had).

That is a great picture.  You did a really nice job of it.
