It's almost there, I'm not a fan of the headstock though and I would feel the need to round off that awkward corner of the pickguard and the end of the fretboard.
I think you could juat swap the neck out for something more conventional looking.

Yeah, needs 6 inline headstock. Nice to see someone else utilizing this shape.

Yeah, all in all, it's not a bad effort.

I think reverse headstocks look silly even when it's a Firebird or SS or something, so don't really mind.

I think it looks cool, and I don't look at headstocks a lot. I prefer 3 to a side headstocks actually, less thought goes into what tuner I'm holding.
It is also 648mm, or 25.5" scale.

It also makes the instrument a bit shorter. I like the 3+3 design. I don't know if I prefer it.
