Early Plug Repaint

This is one of the first plugs I ever turned/made! I had spray bombed it White w/Red Head and it was hanging in my shop and I always liked this plug so I thought I would pimp it out with a nice air brush job! So I hand sanded it down to naked wood (that was a good time) primed it and gave it my "Bunker" paint job! I was worried about the pattern break at the joint, but I think it came out great! Its a "Hanger" for my man-cave! Once in awhile its just fun to work on something different!

Nice paint on that plug Larry and it is nice to work on something different once in a while.
