fantastic stuff, i've actually stocked on some perch skins too last weeks fishing session and will attempt to make one of my own too. time will tell if it will be a total disaster or success.

JK, I did use the skin first and then coated it with epoxy. I did 2 bandsaw cuts after it dried to scoop out the face area and then I added the cheek and gill plates and then 4 more coats of epoxy to get back to smooth. Did some highlite face details and then 2 more coats. What was I thinking! LOL
