If it is advise or critique you want all you have to do is ask. I and others have been blasted before for giving unsolicited advise so are adverse to doing so.
First, take your pictures on an overcast day and without flash. It is hard enough to judge an in-the-white gun let alone with the sun reflecting off the wood and obscuring all the angels.
Besides the glaring errors Keb pointed out I am really curious about your lock choice. Which lock did you use? Either the lock is to small or your rifle is dimensionaly too large. There is way too much wood over and under that lock. Please post a closer picture of the lock side panel straight on.
To compound what Keb said, perhaps you should wait until you have the original in hand so that you can see...and feel...what he means about the rounding of surfaces. From your initial shaping it appears that the only ML's you have been exposed to are of the modern import variety. There is nothing wrong with that but you will see an tremendous difference in shaping between an original and a mass market 20th century manufactured ML.
It is apparent you have skills, it is just that you are working without a guide. You will be amazed at the difference once you handle the original.
Take your time and Enjoy, J.D.
