Tied this one this morning didn't come out as well as I expected so it got the name Funky Squid,instead of keeping the epoxy clear I mixed in some airbrush paint to the epoxy for the pinkish body.

Not bad, though. The different length feathers might serve as good tentacles. I heard they have "squid runs" in Long Island. Is that the north or south shore usually?
How do you get the side feathers to stay out that far?
Did you put it under water yet to see what it looks like wet?
Nice effort.
