Hey guys, I'm glad that you like it. camo .... see, I told you I was working!?!? HAHAHAA!!!
I definately could not have come this far with out the input from you guys, so again, thank you.
I'm not sure yet whether or not I'm going to add in the water. I had though about putting a bucket/ pail in, but I don't feel like scratching anymore on this one. I had thought that the shells were a little large, but I'm not about to change them out now. Plus, they're about the size of the figure's thumb, which is about the right size. As far as the blasts on the door goes, you hardly ever got thr door open with one shell. That's just the truth. Doesn't matter though, they ALWAYS knew you were coming ... might as well just pump a few shells into it just to get it open as quickly as possible! The front porch .... they don't have much, but what they do have they will give you in a heart-beat .... to include a nice "welcome", no matter how ratty a shack it may be.
If a may ... for a moment of "gay-ness" ....
I hate those bastards that we fight ... that kill our young men and women, our brothers, our sisters ... our good friends. They say that it's their religious beliefs, but I call BS. I've read the Koran, I've prayed my Christian prayers while knelt next to a Muslim "brother" ... and I came back with my head. These idiots are no different than any other power-hungry SOB throughout the rest of history. So to that, I say F*CK'EM ... that's what they make cross-hairs for....
... BUT, with that said ....
I have nothing but the utmost respect for the people of Iraq. They are some of the most genieune people that I have had the pleasure to meet. Sure, some are currupt, but you have to look at the over-all picture instead. Even though I will be going back for my third trip soon, I can honestly say that one day ... one day I hope to go back on my own .... on vacation.
This piece has brought a lot of ... well, we'll just call it "closier" for me. It was a joy, though sometimes hard, to build this piece. Thanks again for helping me getting it put together. Whether it wins awards at competitions or not ... I'm proud of it.
