Just got a few new colors from a member of C.C (Cadman) in and want to see if anyone has any ideas of what colors I should tie on these. I really like the silver one with the little flakes in it and then the o light color one is a shade of Blue that is almost Gray. The other is a Copper color and still trying to figure out what color for the eyes as well as the rest of it. Opinions would be appreciated for sure.

What color is that whitish one,slate grey?Would look great with a grey kip and black pearl chenille body.
That is called Crocus Blue. It has a very light Blue tint and I was thinking maybe bait fish colors with this as the head. I have some silver/gray rabbit I may try on it.Quote:

Although I can't help you with what to tie on the jigs, I think the copper jig should have an orange eye and maybe a black pupil. Just some feedback, but I did something similar to your copper jig, but it was just a solid black eye, and then I put gold fine powder glitter over the entire jig. Came out beautiful. One final thing, isn't that copper weird, when you put it on, it's copper and then when you heat it more or bake it the black vein comes through. I am interested to see what other suggestions will be here and definitely post a pic of them when they are all finished.
I reallyb like that crocus blue.Is it like painting white?Such a pain,I mean?
Thanks Cadman!Quote:

I still love that Galv Silver and the sparkles really show up in this pic huh? I didn't think they would so was pleasantly surprised when it showed so well.
Can't wait to experiment with colors with these. Would have also painted the other colors, but these were the ones that are really different than anything else I have.
Thanks again,

Cadman, copper vein is an incredible paint. I love watching it transform from copper to black. Now I have a bunch of pretty copper heads and dont know what colors to tie with either. I liked the vein so much I got some silver and gold also. Skip I think the galv silver is one of the best silvers out there.
man that silver flake one i would just do grey/grey hackle tail with a bit on pearl kystal in it would kill
that copper one is neat i would try a white eye with a black puple and as for bodys and tail i would start with browns blacks burnt ornge or even a white body copper tail
As far as brilliance goes, I love the copper vein. I am in the process of getting the silver and the gold vein. Also I have yet to see a silver like the galvanized silver. It just sparkles without any glitter. These are probably my best colors. I see so many powder paint colors, that after awhile I lose sight of them, unless someone posts a pic like Skip did and then you see the color for all of its worth.Quote:

I would like to see a chartreuse with that Black comes out like that copper. I think I'm set for life with all the powder paint that I have now. But you know how it is if there's a new color that comes aboard we have to have no not really:Dbut kids will be kids or is it curiosity killed the cat to see what it would look like:eek:.
cadman if you get the other colors like a copper please let me know.
