Gills and bleeding gills
 
3 Attachment(s)
Using red craft fur, cut into triangle shape small enough to fit into area cut out for the gills. Take a business card and apply Softex to both sides. Insert the business card into the slot and apply the Softex to the top and bottom of the slot.

Applying Craft fur

Using a metal lip, push the craft fur into the slot. Let dry and then start to trim.

Trimming craft fur

Get as close as you can to the inside of the slot.

Repeat the process on the other side.

You can also leave the whole length of craft fur, to give the appearance of a bleeding gill.

Cheers!!!!

I heard he's been in mens rest rooms leaving his mark....see scuppers thread.

All joking aside that looks great Mike, let me know when it's ready for me to pick up.

Got some more bar swag for you too.

Chris,
That's your plug, I'm way to jacked up on coffee to sign it. Going to have to wait a week or so. Been doing a night shift at the nuke in Plymouth.
