Pretty good.  Looks like you've already done better than most people's first casts.

Well, I will say I've been watching ppl for years and reading how they cast their stuff.  I did some work in plaster a few years back, but nothing this serious.  Thanks to Clint and my wife, and cheered on by my kids, I got after it and turned out a credible first effort!

I'm thinking I'll take another crack at it today and see if I can beat the air-bubble issue quickly and easily.  Can't let the resin sit around go bad, after all!
