Makes me wish I had a rifle that I could send him so he could "rattle snake" it.
Maybe I should look at a mike rifle.

Thanks and Sam that's what I used, a laundry bag. The webbing is perfect for making snakeskin, a ol painters trick.:) Ed

I think it looked much better without the leaves, but thats just my $0.02. It just needed some slight highlights and detailing for a less uniform look.

Oh I'm always splashing something new on the stock's per customers request. Ed

So the Leaves and stuff were also per customer request? Like I said, I'm not feeling the leaves too much. I think it looked cooler before just needed some finishing accents like some eyes and fangs on at the front or something like that to finish it off.

Here is a challenge for ya, multicam

Buddy you can splash anything you want on any of my stocks..:)

: Re: Messing with camo idea's:)
: 1shotwander March 03, 2009, 10:11:32 AM

Just my two cents but, i think that would look wickedly awsome on Gene's gun, If the gun was in the stock, then have the snake's body overlap on the gun its self, dont know if the makes any sence but...

: Re: Messing with camo idea's:)
: shadow March 03, 2009, 10:39:21 AM

Yes that would be a good touch but if he decides to change the stock to another action, well you know. hehehe. Ed

: Re: Messing with camo idea's:)
: 1shotwander March 03, 2009, 10:49:13 AM

Well  true,yeah that would look a little odd, but why the hell would you want to switch them? They look to good to mess around with them

: Re: Messing with camo idea's:)
: shadow March 03, 2009, 12:05:30 PM

I'm always switching stock for the seasons lol, the perks of getting to camo my babies hehehe. Ed
