Bass Progress (but slow)

I see the bass but can't figure out where the knob is for the treble?

I know, "no treble at all!" lol

It's a treble hook,Dave, and that will be attached to the crawdad later!

Here's the next stage. It's taking me longer than I want because I'm using the craft store acrylics, and they don't come in "fish colors" so I have to experiment with mixing shades to get the right hues. This is the base undercoat of bronze, a 25-75% mix of rubis royale and medium hauser green.

Now I'm working on getting the next several shades of greens, blues, yellows and browns that will be needed. ( so far about 4 busts) Anyway, it's coming along.

Here's the next slow step......midnight green over the bronze/green mix, and fading into the belly area. Took a while to find the right green for this. Now I have to play with some more greens, yellows, cream colors, and browns for the next stages. I told ya this was not going to be fast. Wish i knew what I was doing instead of having to dabble with this.

If you don't know what you are doing ALA, I would hate to see when you do.

Totally AWSOME!!
