Thanks! Half the house said color & the other half said processed. I think I might be partial to the processed.

The rules in post one say no editing.
This might be considered editing.

I really don't think filters matter. Bossman (Mike) might say different but I can't see a way how that could influence judging.

I don't know...one way or the other, I just assumed editing meant 'nothing' could be done to the photo.
I don't care one way or the other....I just don't want that one picture to get disqualified....you know what I mean?

Ok.. here is DH's final attempt at a submission.
He first made a train on a Tyco track with a coal car, passenger cars and caboose. All were eggs with the model train wheels and connectors. The locomotive had a smoke stack to burn a little tobbaco for the visual effect. He kept playing with it until it rolled off the counter and did a Humpty Dumpty.. All that time and effort.. I married a child.
He got bored trying to duplicate and moved on..

So.. that led to this project. Bob first did this same idea with a sponge bob looking egg but the chemicals eat away the construction adhesive and killed sponge bob egg pants too.

Which led to the final Egg.. (Thank God)
We are both MAJOR Beatles fanatics. So it is only natural to base a project egg on the Fab 4!

WE ALL LIVE IN A YELLOW EGG MARINE, A YELLOW EGG MARINE..

Mineral Spirits does not mix with rubbing alcohol. Isophoric alcohol stays at the bottom while the mineral spirits floats on top of the alcohol.
The food coloring only mixes with the alcohol as well.
The egg rapidly disolving, the yellow dyed egg starts clouding up the mineral spirits quickly. Camera man had to be ready..​
