Hey Jerry,

Great idea and looking dio.
Have to admit with the title I wasn't sure either were you going with this.

wow, Jerry, what a great scene! The detail is remarkable (as always) and the setting is just perfect. Well done once again.

I found some more pics I took of this. Some guys have said I don't take enough pics so I decided to include these even though the thread is about done.
Maybe somebody can find them useful?

Love it. Simple but says a lot. Excellent painting on the faces. Wish I could get them half as good as that. The facial expressions say a thousand words and the whole thing needs no explanation at all. It's absolutely spot on. I take my hat off to you sir!

Very nice.

I've always wanted to do a piece where a bunch of weapons were being collected from a battle field and stacked up. I figured it would be a good way to use up the uncountable 98K rifles and MG34 machine guns I've amassed over the decades.

The thing is......painting weapons is one of my least fun things.

Mike Karl,Even and Chazman.
Thanks so much for taking the time to type something in here. It always means a lot to me and I usually answer pretty fast but things got hectic around here.
Thanks so for kind remarks guys. I am glad you liked it!
Yes,it is a very good way to get rid of a built up stockpile of older weapons,isn't it? I would have made the pile bigger but two nights of just painting carbines was a bit much.
