Packs and rifles look brilliant Tony! Love the different color variations in the gun stocks and pack gear, very nice.

You know something Bill? If you would happen to retire from model building I could relax and not have to try and out do you all the time.  But then where is the honor in that? You can't win the fight before you have a battle.  I need to take my meds now Thanks Bill you're alright in my book. Tony lee |

Tony your turning out some exceptional modeling my friend . That camo is killer .I'd leave it as is if it was my choice .Then there is the exceptional detail you did on the rifles ! That wood color looks perfect !

Don't worry Carl she'll stay just as she is. I feel it's headed in the right direction but the road in my head is pretty crooked. That was a very kind compliment there friend,Thanks Tony lee  |

Tony
The camo is a knockout job and I am certain somewhere in the thick of the battle there was one just like it, everyone sure has spotted those rifles are award winners. I always have troubles with painting those small realistic rifles and I don't know why because you make it look so easy and realistic. I have never tried the different color scheme for some reason as you did on both the rifles and packs but you have certainly showed the way, another lesson learned. Great job keep up the good work.

Bones most of the time I don't know what the heck i'm doing and I blindly keep stepping over the line or out of the circle until it looks about right and stop right there. With the next build I always find new lines to cross and circles to step out of and I keep pushing, it's only plastic, glue and paint. I've got to be some where and doing something and it might as well be at the hobby bench. If I mess up I just keep pluggin away until I make it go away. I did some thing today or was it yesterday? Anyway I stopped and said to myself "Self that ain't right", I must have fixed it because I can't remember what it was. Glad you like my efforts Bones. Us register Rednecks aim to please. Tony lee |

You can't win the fight before you have a battle. I need to take my meds now Thanks Bill you're alright in my book. Tony lee Ha! I feel the same way about your work my friend, with every build you raise the bar just a little bit higher and add something new/different to your approach. Always fun to see what Uncle T's going to do next! |

Thanks William
I'm going to try and put the camo on the gun tomorrow, not sure how it's going to look sitting back in the middle of the chassis like that
and not up front.
Like I said it's only plastic, glue and paint.
