Looks great. Can someone please post a link to more info about the TE2 helmet?

Decision has been made to get it woodgrained a darker and slightly reddish color, like walnut with a hint of cherry. A plain black stock would not have done the gun justice. Thanks, all, for your input.

The choices I have are Black or Woodgrain.

I just watched all the MG34 scenes in ANH sitting a foot from my 40" HDTV and all I can tell for sure is two of the 4 in the Death Star rack are darker than the other two. The one Han & Chewie end up taking along is one of the darker two. If it's woodgrain, it's incredibly dark wood - not light like the stock on the real MG34 I've borrowed from a friend.

I'm purchasing a Hyperfirm MG34 from SciFire. I am not sure if I want the stock/butt woodgrained or not. I don't want to do it myself. I don't get along well with paint. I personally think it would look good black, and I've read about the bakelite stocks used in the movies. What I'm wondering is IF I get tired of trooping in a year or two and I decide to sell my armor and accessories, would the gun be more desirable/valuable if the stock was woodgrained? What do YOU all think? I need to know ASAP. Thanks in advance!
