Buttplate!

Here's my accomplishment today:

3D surface modeled, 3D engraved! Yesser, I'm rather tickled!

Now off to paint for this biche! Cobalt blue with platinum tribal ghost flames.

Woo Hoo!

That's a fantastic job. And if you put it on a heavy recoiling rifle, people will wear your name on their upper chest!!

Needs gold inlays for sure.

That's funny! I should have made the logo backwards so it'd read right when it brands the shooter!

I've seen many of your pictures and you do great work. Either that or you're very good with Photo Shop!!

What if you made it removable and included a little pastry torch in the butt of the stock so the shooter could brand whatever he had just shot with the rifle?

Nice job.

While I appreciate the kind remarks understand guys this is for a TWENTY TWO LONG RIFLE. Not much recoil.

It's a full effort dedicated benchrest gun for competing in RBA and USRA events.

You'll see when it gets back from paint.

As for photoshop:

I knew it was a benchrester and had to have little recoil or you wouldn't have put it on that stock.
