Colour laminating a Hippie Fish (all photos Ian Thurtell):


Preparing the outline on the deck for the rail laps, adding and cutting the cloth (6oz).


Adding the colour starting with the lightest and building on that to create the tie dye pattern.


Working quickly now (its resin not paint!!) once all the colours are added to get those laps nice and tight. See how the board came out 2 posts below.
Thanks again Ian for taking such great photos in the resin fumes. YEWWWW

5'6" Squid Fish


Had fun shaping this one, even more fun with the resin tint. Trying to create a cosmic blast type thing. Messy but happy with the end result.
