Terry, looking good.
One observation-
Pic #5 The machine heads & nut assembly- Would it look better cosmetically if the sides of the nut base plate were chamferd/angled, allowing them to sit tighter to the machine heads? I'm not sure, but this could possibly help with sustain.
By the way- Sky blue.

It needs a neck Terry, or routed to create one, it is supposed to sit like below! You'll also need to route a hole for the pickup to sit in
sorry these pictures are crap, they were cropped from bigger shots!
It played great I just made a s**t job of the body, but then I was only twenty three and all I had was a wooden hut and a bag of Callard and Bowser toffees..
Thinking back the six year old 'wee falla' next door used to come knock and ask could he help me make my funny guitar! but actually he just wanted to sit up at my bench and eat all my toffees!! ..ah! fond memories! 
You will have these too in due course Terry!
