David,

Looks like you did a good job on your rifle.  Nate would be proud.

You did a nice job on that rifle, David.  I love the sweeping lines of the buttstock, very attractive to me.

I think your mentor would be proud of your work.

It is really hard for me to asses this rifle. Since there are so many background distractions. Sometimes is best to take photos on a bed on the plainest sheets you have.  The rifle will stand out much better against a plain background. Just my two cents.

Alacran is right about the plain background.  I would add the best light is outside on an overcast day.
