Comment by AGP # on November 17, 2019 at 8:40am: "Thanks Pick", Swampiness was the furthest thing from my mind when doing this build, I was just trying to combine my latest obsession of heavy burning, and staining, Green on this one to suit the plate, BUT!, was more than happy with all the unexpected Swampy comments, obviously our learned and respected CBN friends saw something that I originally didn't!. :- D

Comment by the anonymous pick on November 16, 2019 at 1:59pm: I think the "swampy" comments compliment us both ;-)

Comment by AGP # on November 14, 2019 at 5:41pm: Thanks 'UJ' & 'Bones', never thought about it that way, but your right!, it does have that "Primordial Ooze from the Swamp" look about it. :-D
