Very nice!!
What kind of epoxy did you use for the blue?
Was that used to fill natural voids in the wood?

I've used a local epoxy resin ( SQ 2001 ) with a blue pigment and a kind of alumilite pigment.

Yes! the wood had a big hole in it. So, I fill it with resin and cut the riser mold.

Here some pictures before I cut:
