Nice Jug Dflu. The OD is dead on. I also like your blog. I've been meaning to do something similar but I barely have time to post pictures here....lol. Thanks for sharing

dflu: I'm just going to go ahead and echo what everyone else will no doubt say. This is a superb looking razorback. This is the kit I've been looking to do first in fact. The later variants will just have to come later. =] I haven't done a completely OD green color scheme yet, so I hope I can accomplish all the little things you have occurring subtly here.

Sweet Jug! =P I'm hitting your link now.

Thanks for checking in everyone.

And thanks to those who visit my page :)

Joe, it's some work if you want it to look like something you feel like people would want to look at. It is a time suck, and I struggle with it on occasion because I wonder if the work will pay off...but I'm being hopeful. It's still a work in progress and nowhere near what I have in my head...lol. I think people would benefit greatly if you did decide to do one though. Thanks for looking in!
