I have often wondered if it would be possible to shoot the core with a bigger scope--now I know it is!!!  Wow.  The size of your sensor helps--I would need a 4 panel mosaic to cover the same area.  Well done.

Really nice image!

But I do not think you reached the limit yet. Last year I started probing the M31 core and was supplied with data from Ole Alexander whom, like you, had used a 12" Newton. I think it shows you could even get more details out of that core, see this thread:
