    Default 2nd attempt


    I'm still rushing things to much though. i HATE taking the hooks off so I wrapped them with tape. This time I did coat them in white twice with a 15 minute dry between coats. Then let them sit for 30 minutes and hit the with the top and bottom coats. Once that sat for another 30 minutes, I painted a green spot on the underside where the bill hits the bait. Getting better but I need to get things setup right and take my time more. Not sure if I'm going to clear coat these yet or just redo them. Right now I'm mainly just getting used to using the airbrush is all. In the pics, You can see what they started out looking like

    Maybe we are just on the wrong side sometimes.....

    If you enjoy it and slow down, you will get better. I learn something new about watches just about every time I open one up.

    Man, I WISH I had a shop. I have a plastic table cloth on my dining room table so I don;t mess it up. I'm gonna set something up in the garage soon but therre ain;t no heat nor AC in there. LOL on the top coat, shoot Scott a PM and get him to send you the info. I still haven't ran by Lowe's yet to pic it up. It's a 2 part mix polymer coat that he puts on with a sponge brush if I rememeber right on what he sent me. I'm sure that'll make the colors stand out when I get that on there.
