Thread: Rosy Red Rabbit Hair Jigs

the jigs are really awesome guys.

Those make my rosey red ties look like a chimp did them........

Here is the other one I did with Rabbit and both wet and dry. I am not sure I would stay with the color head I used on these, but I do have that pales pink now that may work better????

This one to me looks like the color strips I used was Salmon Pink Orange & the other one I posted last night was I think Peachy Pink, but I may have to tie another one to know for sure, LOL! Darn which I had written that down like I usually do. I tied these in very early 2013 so been a little while.

Wet of course!


Dry...

Thanks for all your compliments.

Very nice work with the powder paint and tying the jigs

I am for sure!

Skip

That's what I would use or just mix them to get it. I get the Hairline rabbit hide scrap packages and cut my own zonkers and cross cuts. Any colors that don't come in the bags I'll get separate if needed. Here's the thread on it
