Love your build, Dan. Your skills really shine through on this. Put this with an Iraq background and you'll be hard pressed to prove it is not full sized! WOW.
I do have one small observation, a nitpick really. And I apologize in advance but as a former machine gunner it jumped out at me. The rounds for your .50 cal. It looks like you have painted them and leaden color. In reality, they rounds themselves should be very similar in color to the brass of the casings.
Other than that, it looks awesome!

Dan, I've learned two things during this build. #1 That Rustoleum is the coolest idea for anti slip, I have already used it on a project. (thank you) #2 When you do Modern builds I'll be watching.!! Sweet build dood.  |

Loved watching this one come together Dan, the two-tone variations between the green and sand blend together just right. This one's got character without being over the top. Nice!

I agree with Bill. I love the combo of sand and OD green. Very eye catching and realistically done. Great work!

Just like Rob I am not into modern armors but you have changed my mind. Now I am really looking forward to my first modern build later this year just because of this. LOL Beautiful... just perfect!!!
