Well, after it sat in the garage for a few weeks I finally started glassing that bonzer.
Right now all I have left to do is hot coat the deck, sand, and apply the gloss coat. For the pigment I used acrylic paint which actually worked really well. I was concerned the resin might not set up properly, but that wasn't the case.
This might be the last board I glass only because of how much glassing sucks. The rail laps on this one didn't go so well, the cloth kept wrinkling up. Really frustrating. I'll post some pics of the finished product on a later date.

Keep it up Drew,
Don't sweat any detractors or negators, not that anyone here is hating on you, but Hobie Alter, Reynolds Yater, and many other legends went their own way and never looked back.
This first board may very well lead to your ticket out of AwFolly and into a locale where there are actually consistent waves and a consistent paying gig. Who know's ol' D-man may end shaping at Lost...
Get out of Folly is my advice, keep shaping.
