Fish faucet!!

I need to retake the studio photos because most of the details don't show up, but I decided to post these up anyway! So we finally finished our faucet project, and I'm so relieved we have a break this weekend.

I created my model out of regular buoyancy billet foam (blue foam) with 7-8 coats of wood putty to fill the pores. I applied two coats of latex primer, which I found to sand horribly (should have known!) so I had to reapply 2 coats of wood putty to smooth it out. After all those layers, I applied three coats of graphite gray acrylic paint. Usually the top gray primer coat is sprayed on, but I wasn't able to find water-based paint, so the only option was to paint it on :-/. Regardless, I think the results are satisfying.
