Back in the saddle

Hey guys,
Spent the day in the paint show, wanted to share some of the progress. These are all for trades to fellow builders. My version of "perch",and my "Tony the tiger" musky shad. I have about 30 more ready for paint. These are all done with pearls, still need the lips epoxied and a couple more coats of clear. Let me know your comments.

Forgive the poor quality photos, I'm challenged at pics

I like the way you do the stylized head/gill area. Very effective.
Nice colors too.

Thanks guys for th feedback

I use waterbased, mostly createx, but the hobby store carries some cool metallics I like to thin down and use. whenever possible I use pearls, they really set a plug off in natural light.
