John Sanner Posted June 19, 2009 Report Share Posted June 19, 2009 I am just getting started and was wondering if anyone could tell me what colors of paint I need to order for bluegill, sexy shad, baby bass, bull bream, thread fin shad, and a crawfish color. I am planning on using createx and wildlife colors from smith products. I just dont want to order a bunch of paint and never use it. Thanks for any info.

BobP Posted June 19, 2009 Report Share Posted June 19, 2009 Well, lessee, to start you off a highly pigmented white for color basecoating, like Polytranspar Superhide White medium gray black yellow red orange medium blue medium brown neon yellow (aka chartreuse) bright green dark green pearl white pearl chrome iridescent gold I'd order the 4 oz size in acrylic latex colors. An 8 or 16 oz Superhide White. Where available, I prefer transparent colors to solids for color layering. You might want to add in metallic blue and green if you like that effect. You can use the pearl chrome to overshoot other colors for a baitfish sheen effect, but it will darken other colors somewhat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
