First time trying on this type of woodworking

  To me, if I back off about 50 foot, they look pretty good with the lights dim. 

Seems like I have to use the air brush when I do anything anymore

and I finally get it set to shoot out small balls of paint but then am having 

trouble placing them where I need em.

   One is cheap American plywood which gives me good grain showing

on projects needing some vision help.

   The other is plain ole pine and there are many good reasons why pine is

about the cheapest wood a person can buy.......

   Smallpatch

Clear Rustoelum 2 X, don't even know how to spell it,

You won't be able to find these two guys in any fish books

but hey there are still some areas of the waters that haven't 

been checked yet.

Turned out great Patch.

They look awesome from here, Jess!

Now to make one and carve in scales. Looks like a new direction.
