Thread Starter: Jeff Monson
Unleaded went from $3.79 this morning to $4.09 in a matter of minutes. 30 cents is quite a hike, cant tell me the gas stations aren't smiling for a couple days.

Some New Items

Nothing real new but I think these came out fairly well. Just veneer (cuts real fast), then I had an artistic friend do a simple color wash on a piece
