WWII Nose Art on a M1 .30 Carbine

[linkpimp]

The Marine motto and some numbering

Painted up the one of the mag’s, I star on one side and some dog tags on the other side..

I’m actually liking the dog tag look, I just need to figure out what to put on the tags.

And then finished the look up by painting the ammo can.. I’m kinda digin it, I should probably add some numbers or lettering to it as well..

Looks awesome, a well done and unique idea for a rifle. Look forward to seeing what you do on the safe.

Hey Linkpimp, Interesting idea.... I believe I probably would have some nice nose art for one of your projects and my Gunbunnies models would love it if a rifle was named after them and had thier likeness on it's nose.... PM me if you want to go somewhere with the idea... can't post any of my images on here as I've been worned in the past not too... Nice work...

That is a great job. I would have been skeptical about the outcome if someone was telling me about the concept, but after seeing the end result it looks great.
