I shaped and assembled all the pieces you see in this violin except the chinrest, tail piece, and pegs. The fingerboard was store-bought but had to be shaved thinner and the bridge came as a blank but I had to shape it to match the fingerboard.
The brass windows hold dark mica panels intended to reveal inner illumination, but sadly this part of the project never achieved a desirable effect and is currently inactive.

There's no holes in the top of the sound box. So is it actually functional?

It's gorgeous, though, you did a fantastic job. <3

Anyways, this is a really beautiful piece of craftsmanship. Makes the violinist in me squeal with glee and jealousy. Great job!
