A couple I'm working on

Been working on a few large handcarved swimmers. These are 9" long and 1 3/4" wide at the widest part. White cedar, through wired, and epoxy sealed. Hope to be able to get some paint on these today. I'm pushing it and should probably give it one more sanding and another coat of primer but I want to paint one.

And my plug for the challenge contest. I decided to foil this to hopefully get the effect I'm after. It is foiled with aluminum tape and then burnished smooth. I will give it a coat of epoxy now to take care of the seam, then paint and epoxy again.
