Came out really nice...especially the coloring, looks very natural. The oscars should like it.
 
Yeah, I think it looks great!

Is this your first time carving styro for anything?
If so, I'm really impressed.

Now I am very interested in how you keep it firmly in place.
 
Yes its my first time and its glued to the glass yet...haven't decide how to put it on yet...someone sugested magnets or silicon..
 
So I'm happy to say that I'm an owner of a used little giant pump 2mdqxsc I won it online for 36 w shipping said it works but impeeler is a little noisy....the bad thing is that it might be to small for my setup I was going more towards a sumergible..oh well...ps..I'm addicted to ebay...lol
 
did you use any sort of epoxy over the drylock or just paint?
 
I added color to the dryloc.....so it was white and added quikrette color. Am I suppossed to add. Some..its my first one so not sure thought the dryloc was the sealer....
 
Great job, really top notch work, especially for a first effort.
Never heard of an Oscar not liking the light though, and I've personally kept and or worked with more than a few Oscars. Are you sure it wasn't just that particular oscar?
