Hey Troops,

Thought I'd share with you that I was commissioned a couple months ago by the Great Lakes Garrison to build one of my E-11's to be presented to Matt Busch at an honorary membership induction.  For those of you who don't know who Matt is check out these links:

Here are a couple photos Matt had forwarded to me with him holding it.

It's pretty cool to have celebrites owning my work!!  ATM the only one higher on the "celeb list" who owns my stuff is Kyle Yount IV (he's like, Royalty!! :mrgreen:)

That is cool, man! I love his work, too. Plus the book he worked on is on my to-get list...

Very cool.  The highest compliment is that he looks like he is imitating your avatar in the 2nd photograph. :mrgreen:

No offense to either of you, but Gny. Sgt. Hartman's warface line from Full Metal Jacket is coming to mind...
