Yeah well I looked at that on Sunday morning and didn't know what to say. I just looked again
and I think it's very clever. He could make a fortune here in Oz.
At that rate, he could do a Tank, two guards, side covers and two wheels... x 4, and go home at lunch time.
We spend a lot of time bagging the Indians, Chinese, Asians etc, but that is pretty good.
Obviously he doesn't drink Spirits.

Gday AC,
yes one very clever and talented man! He spins that tank around like its nothing where as I'd be gripping it with dear life afraid not to drop or scratch it. Interesting he uses the same brush to paint the thin line as just used for the thicker. Gold paint has a fair bit of fleck in it and I bet it'd be real bitch to want to run. Mixing the paint to the right consistancy would be an art in its self!
