Another try at an A-2

[fishmeok]

Made this one out of brown horse- As simple as an A-2 looks, there are a lot of quirks that make them difficult to make... lucky for me the great oracle of Chapman is available...

Two thumbs up ! Like the color!

It looks the part from your general pics, Mark. Is it based on any particular contract? Looking forward to seeing photos of the details. Keep up the good work.

I was trying for more of a Doniger-esque look, more pics tomorrow.

That is a very nice looking jacket. Now for a G-1.....

I really like the jacket. If I had the scratch, I'd order one just like it. Great color and detailing.

 

[TankBuster]

Nice job Mark! The collar definitely has the Doniger look to it.

Mark - terrific!

Looks like there is interest here, I'll bet this ends up on the Bay?

Congrats -

Marcel- you know border collies prefer frisbee's! This particular jacket is going to a customer- the M1941 I made is on ebay now though.

It really looks great, Mark! I think you have captured the A-2 essence with a definite Doniger flair!

Well done Mark, thats looking very nice indeed. Collar looks to be a bit Doniger, a bit Dubow... and sits nicely, very well done!

Take 2- modified a few things

Here's another try- I modified the pocket flaps and collar bit, and tried some different cotton broadcloth for the liner.
