OK Jeff Was you standing by me on Saturday when a lady asked me about a pen with a fish on it? Are these going to be available soon? Thanks

Great looking bass Jeff! This will be a hit! It looks like your swirling some color below, I think you should try some blue and green for that water appearance. IMHO

There is some blue swirling around in the blank, but more white than blue. I didn't want the fish to get lost in too much confusion. It was bad enough I had to catch them, then shoot them with my skippy atomizer, then dry them in the oven. :wink:

There is more detail than you see too..gets lost in the photo and with it being square and unpolished. The fish is two tones of green with a splash of silver. The mouth and eye is black inside. Then the belly is silver. There are cuts in the belly to accentuate the spiny gills that make the Largemouth Bass so identifiable. It's a ton of work for a 1/2x1" fish...but I think it'll be worth it in the end. Now that Ratty is back peeking around, obviously waiting for me to teach him how to make a real pen..I'll have to do something extra extra special with this blank..hope my grand idea pans out.:biggrin:
 
Ok, Jeff. Nice work. Put a Walleye on there instead of a Bass and I'll be in line to buy. I have way more walleye fishermen than bass around here. Cool blank non the less.

Bring it on, sunshine!!!! :biggrin:

I've got one brewing in vinegar ( I kid you not!!! ) as we speak:wink:
I'm away this week so hopefully I'll get it done next weekend when I get back. :biggrin:

The only way you could do something special with that cool blank is to send it to someone else!!!!:devil::tongue:
