    They do look like the small fry. How do you put the color on the middle ?

    To get the core color, hand pour the belly side of the mold and allow the plastic to lose some of its heat. Using a toothpick just barely dipped in raw colorant, put a spot of the color right at the front end of the belly section but not on the very end. Keep the mold flat while and after clamping. Heat the plastic you used for the belly back to a working temp, fill the injector and then quickly stand the mold up and hoot in the finish plastic, hold some light pressure for a ten count. It takes some practice to know how much color is too little or too much but the process is an easy one.
