It's just amazing what you can build! Are you basing some of your dimensions off the smaller diecast mode, sitting next to the big model? I like how you make your steps. Maybe that is something I can try sometime. What kind of endmill do you use to cut the relief for the bends? Is it just a small square edged endmill?

I use that Norscot diecast model to take some measurements, they are actually pretty accurate.
For the relief grooves I use this tool:
