Foiled Bunker handcarve

This is right at 6 inches and weighs in at a little under 3oz. Its carved out of clear pine, sealed with spar urethane/mineral spirits, primed with BIN primer rattle can. I glued the foil on with spray adhesive and let it dry good for a couple days and then embossed it with a knurled aluminum rod a friend made for me just for this purpose. I then airbrushed the foil with Createx and let it dry. It has two coats of Etex, a hand cut stainless lip, 3/0 VMC belly hook and a tied by me 5/0 VMC tailhook. Swims nice.

very nice work DS.

Plug is sweet. I've been using aluminum foil tape and rolling the bottom of a textured ratchet handle across it for a similar effect. Your plug looks great!
