Nice, I like those, and the colors. Have wondered how those and pill heads pull thru the water, versus ball heads.
This head as well as egghead I only use for dipping.
Nice!
Good set of jigs. I only use round head as they handle the river current better. But those look fine.
Beautiful heads Nip!!

I also have that mold. People ask me If I have any of the jigs with the big eyes. :biggrin Love your colors and workmanship. :highfive
Thank you.
Really liking the June bug with holographic flake over black!!! To get this effect I filled a salt shaker with the June bug with added flake and ever so slightly sprinkled it on top of hot head painted black.

I only use Pro-tec powder paint or at least for the time being.
1st step I added some Lureworks .015 holographic silver flake to some Pro-tec junebug paint. I then put some in a salt/pepper shaker I got at IKEA last time I was there.

Once in salt shaker I place a sheet of paper where the work space I will be shaking some powder paint.
Now I dip the head in Pro-tec black paint. I immediately move to my junebug work station and 1st shake or should I say tap some paint out of shaker to get it flowing and then tap onto head. I found holding the shaker higher works best. Talking like 8” or so above head. I twist head around to get coverage I want. Once complete I dip head in water and then store until ready to bake. Left over paint that was shook out onto paper can be put back with paint.
The last step to get the gloss shine is KBS Diamond. I will post a tutorial on this. I know I’ve teased it this method and will get a tutorial up soon.
Thank you for the explaination DrNip.It is very kind of you for sharing how you produce your jig artwork.That is master usage of materials to produce some beautiful jigs anyone would envy.
Thanks again
