Default Win61 engraving

I ran accross these two pics of some engraving I did on a Win61 a couple years ago. Thought I'd post them w/my new Imgbb picture posting thingy. Seems to work easily enough.

I think the rifle was a .22Mag cal IIRC. The pattern is a very loose interpretation of Winchesters #8 pattern. I couldn't find any other pics I had taken of the rifle. I had restocked it, checkered it, ect. Just done on speculation and then sold.

Looks like my picture takin abilitys got in the way and washed out any detail to the scroll shading on the right side pic. The gun is complete and assembled in the pics so I'm thinking it must have been there!
Bad floppy disc maybe..

Beautiful work!

I'm sure that the photos do not do justice to the detail involved.

Very nicely done. As I've said in the past, you are very talented. Yes, the animals do look real. Larry

Fantastic scenes (and perfect on a 22LR) - beautiful work.

Thanks for sharing,
