From Wikipedia:

"The prone position is the position of a shooter lying face down on the ground. It is considered the easiest and most accurate position as the ground provides extra stability."

In other words, this is the most lethal garden gnome rifleman in the world today!

To compliment my other Combat Garden Gnomes, I'm offering up a batch of prone gnome riflemen. As you can see from the pictures, these guys are every bit as detailed as the others, but with the grim, concentrated expression of a cold-blooded killer about to pull off a head shot from 500 yards.

My gnomes stand just under a foot tall. Lying on the ground, this guy's hat is about five and a half inches high. He weighs somewhere between one and ten pounds, and each one comes armed with the ubiquitous M16A2 assault rifle.

Your gnome will be delicately packed in the finest imported bubble wrap, laid in a luxurious bed of gourmet packing peanuts* or vintage newsprint, and shipped directly to your door by a professional, uniformed carrier through USPS Priority Mail. For your ease of mind, you will receive a tracking number once your gnome has shipped so that you can check on his progress as he makes his speedy way from my workshop to you.

The original was hand sculpted by me, an unemployed sailor/artist/philosopher/craftsman. Once I'd created a working mold, the original was destroyed and then lovingly reproduced in solid, American-made, urethane casting resin.

To paint these, I've begged and pleaded with every artistic person I know to help keep up with the demand. I'm starting to run out of helpful friends at this point and quality work like this is expensive, so If you'd like to save yourself a bit of money you can buy one of my unpainted castings (listed separately) and paint them yourself.

Because of their handmade nature, there will be slight variations in your particular gnome. I will also be selling other Combat Garden Gnomes in different poses as well. Next up I'll be offering a minesweeper gnome.

*Do not eat the packing peanuts.
