Hey All,
Alittle update today. I've added a camo net to the Limber. Thoughts?

Brian,

I don't want you to take this as a criticism, but the camo net looks a bit stiff to me. I think it should look more like it has been draped over the gun. It seems to have the same characteristics as a roll of carpet would have. Can you make it look a bit more flexible?

I think the idea of the net is a great one, but it would be a real shame to spoil your work by not getting it to look right.

Hope you don't mind.

Hi Andy,
Yes, it does look alittle stiff I admit. I'm going to have some more stuff up front of the limber, Fuel cans, rations, whatever else I can get on the tray. So hopefully it will look alittle better with everything in place and not so stiff looking.
I plan to have the 25pdr in a dug out pit with another camo net over the top.

Thx for the reply, Andy. No bruised ego's here.

Hi Brian,

Nice idea about the fuel cans etc, that will make the camo net look perfect. Glad we're all still friends!

Andy,
. Some of us just take it better then others. We're here to learn from each other, and share that information, right.
