Handplane shaping

The paint store pigment trick is a great tip.  I’ve also used a squirt of Testor’s Craft Acrylic with no trouble.  I wouldn’t gob it on for a full opaque pigment job but that’s probably not the best idea even with ‘real’ resin pigments.  At some point it will decrease the material properties of the resin - epoxy or poly.

 

The thing is practically done. I made a lot of mistakes, especially in the lamination (the tail was more difficult than I thought), but given the total lack of experience in everything related to board building, it even turned out pretty. At least I think it will work! Painting helps to disguise my mistakes :slight_smile:



Very nice! I do not have the patience for such elaborate painting.

bling bling , well done! 

I like the Hugo 2022 signature hidden in it
