4:01 a.m............you are up at at 'em pretty early. I would need some more coffee to get up that early. Those look good. I am thinking a light touch with fingernail polish perhaps?????? Then using a Q-tip to buff it off a bit and soften the look.
Nice buddy!!!!!!!!!! Only thing I can think of is you poured half one color let it get fairly firm then poured the other but that don't explain the black bands!!!!!!!LOL
Jumping Jacks Icon I know - I know !!!! He is using magic :ThumbsUp LOL they look great :)
The baits were pour or shot with a base color that was clear or Chart all other color was put on later including the shine . A type of Q tip was involved and the word magic was involved .
Ship woke up to go pee so I took the pic and posted then . I keep a cup of coffee at my bed side too helps me sleep LOL
Oh Yea the jig head color is mixed into the powder same color used on the baits .
You did a beautiful job on your plastics they definitely have a natural look to them I definitely like the little fish or whatever you call that BAIT .Quote:

But before I do I'd like to say , Gentlemen when you go to the check out armed with frilly lace for scales , nail polish and arts and crafts tidbits The looks you get are about to be worse because now you have to add EYE SHADOW . YES THAT'S what I said EYE SHADOW . The colors you see came from Maybeline and Cover Girl applied with the provided applicator And then dipped in a clear Plastic polymer from Lure Craft . The eye shadow stays where its put and does not even leach into the clear .
Not to despair though .Hold your head high cause" We are men on a mission to go fish'in" .
Wow! Who'd a thunk it!? I was no where close to guessing that!
