Been seeing a lot of people talk about the 3.5 SS so I decided to break it out and start stocking up for summer. This is a color I've never tried but maybe it'll work.
Red spot:
4 oz plastic
8 drops x2 tomato
3 match heads pearl
Belly:
4oz plastic
3 drops non-x2 amber
2 drops non-x2 white
A ton of bronze glitter. ~ 6 match heads
Back:
4oz
1 drop purple x2
2 drops non-x2 navy
6 drops non-x2 watermelon
~2 match heads pearl
In the picture you can see where I started trying to play with Ctoms way of core shotting. This was the first time I had done it so starting was a little shakey. Here is the final product after about 5-6 practice tries.
The shot started out being the non-x2 colorant but x2 ended up working better. I used purple just to get a decent contrast. To get the tail like that, after pouring the belly, I'd stick the end of a skewer into the colorant and put the small drop right at the end of the yellow belly. Came out pretty cool I think. Bottom of the tail is a solid purple even though it shows up blackish in the picture.
