Love it.. I want one.. guess I need to kill a bear first of all, huh...  :bash: :bash: :bash: :bash:
By my honorable conduct as a hunter let me give a good example and teach new hunters principles of honor, so that each new generation can show respect for their god, other hunters and the animals, and enjoy the dignity of the hunt.

Calling an illegal alien an 'undocumented immigrant' is like calling a drug dealer an 'unlicensed pharmacist'.

Looks nice, but I think I would want one to have white teeth still.  I am guessing you can put some kind of coating on them to prevent coloration?

That's great! A step away from the ordinary, I like it. Can you do a "Skoals" or "Reaper" type hydro dip? Like I have seen on let's say CRC Hydrographics web site.

Loki I too am a fan of the white teeth; hoever this customer insisted on camoing the teeth so thats what they get.

Bigger hammer, we can do most any pattern or design as long as they make a film. My shop however does have limitation do to the size of our tank which limits use to about 40" square.
