I put DANZA's sleeves on the para, cause paras don't wear those tanker jackets.

Also an oak skin is on the way, I should have pics of that later tonight, if people will be cooperative. I need a host, so please dod editing center (I know you guys host alot) help me here.

Thanks JAJAHU and DANZA and Safeh(I believe you did the metal).

Meh, looks like a carrot IMO, try desaturating the wood a bit.

Cpl. Rossi. you didn't have to keep making it darker. you just need to lower that saturation. you can even go lighter, but just make the saturation much less than it is. otherwise it looks really nice.

No one seems to have pointed this out so I'll go ahead :rolleyes:

Unless in WW2, the standard M1 Carbine had an optic sight, I'm wrong in posting this.

I took a look at the skin (the first m1 carbine that was previously released) and there is some white text that get's plastered on the front sight. Very easy to fix, just make the letter that's near the F-sight skin black.

problem solved......Why didn't anyone else notice this?

I didn't do the metal man, I was wondering myself, i'll see what i can do.

my suggestions:
-new wood color, somewhere in the brownish range of colors.
-make the metal part larger, it seems to me it is two small for the size of the rifle.

Also, is there any way you could blend in the end of the carbine? it hard to explain, but it looks out of place. It just seems to jut up from the rest of the gun, especially that flat part right after the metal/reciever of the carbine.
