Fishnut1 Posted July 21, 2008 Report Share Posted July 21, 2008 Looking to paint a few lures in a rainbow trout pattern. I use Createx and need to know which green would be best for the back of the lure? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mark poulson Posted July 21, 2008 Report Share Posted July 21, 2008 I use a mossy green mixed with brown, to get a darker brownish green, or greenish brown. No formula, I just do it by eye. The mossy green is an Apple Barrel paint, and I thin it with windex. The brown is a Createx transparent dark brown. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Downriver Tackle Posted July 22, 2008 Report Share Posted July 22, 2008 I paint the back black first, then go over it with Autoair transparent dark green. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
