I happen to find that pretentious . If you create original "art works" then do so don't mess with others work . Your comments would have me believe you would put the Mona Lisa in a bikini to make her" more attractive" .


When I began my more productive hobby of flintknapping, I made the decision to never utilize the many unfinished aboriginal blanks I found while hunting projectile points. I studied them in all conditions of completion to better understand how I could replicate the originals.

There is likely a point of reason-ability in Mark's gun-stock art. I doubt Mark would undertake to 'improve' a Mona Lisa stock on an existing gun, but there are so many ugly ones out there that his work can make better, I do not personally see the problem...Geo
