Those are good looking jigs. I've been painting heads myself lately. I'll paint a few, hang em, let em dry and paint em again. I always use a clear coat over that once it drys so they won't chip up too bad. The rubber skirts aren't too high so I usually just buy them. now the lead can get pricey so pouring your own isn't a bad idea. I pour all my egg weights for bass and cat fishing though, just don't have the jig head mold.
