small swimmers are weighted dead center. bigger swimmers are weighted slightly aft. Pencils are just loaded in the rear.

All look great!! nice shapes and paint. The color schemes are awesome. I did some squid pencils that look similar, but they're still in primer...

re: feathers
Mix up some red dye in a cup of water, put in white hackle for a few seconds and rinse off with water... presto: pink feathers. That is what I did for my pink squid feathers.
