Looking great! I applaud your tenacity for taking on such awesome DIY project. I have very limited aluminum forming skills but have always been intrigued by the art. This thread may result in me building an english wheel and a planisher.   I previously built some some aluminum aircraft fuel tanks and kind of got the hang of hammer forming using an oak corking tool to form parts around wood forming bocks, but it is child's play compared to beating out large free form shapes such as you have done. Please keep posting progress updates!
