    Had a bit of a summertime lull
    on the painting front...due to household jobs...holidays and granddaughters...( you know the score)... Any way managed to get some brush time recently to just about finish this cracker by Carl Reid and produced by Stuart at Stormtroopers.... I repositioned the carbine sling and made new fittings....usual oils over acrylics.....thanks for looking...Mike
