I don't know PaulsBods. I may have drank that many bottles of wine a year with my ex. Very original. Recycle everything.

very neat! Good work on these. 1 or 2 would have been cool enough, but you actually made a whole company with armor and weapons

some of the wine bottles around here have a synthetic material 'cork' now. Not the traditional cork

I'm 50% Scotch-Irish. I carry a royal family name and would love to see some celts. You could do little nude, blue-painted ones for a combat scene.
