EdL Posted May 22, 2012 Report Share Posted May 22, 2012 A while back Ithought I saw a tutorial or a description of how to paint those orange spots on a sunfish. As I recall it showed using a q-tip or brush to put the orange color on the bait and then maybe putting a drop or small dab of water to wash the color out a bit for more realistic effect. I've used the search on this forum and other forums till I'm thinking I must have dreamed this up. Anybody know where such a post or thread might be? Thanks.

bluetickhound Posted May 22, 2012 Report Share Posted May 22, 2012 Possibly in the hard bait cookbook thread? There seemed to be a lot of recipes for various paint schemes there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EdL Posted May 22, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 22, 2012 Thanks Bluetickhound. Thats the one -Hazmail's Nemo Blob how to. I can't believe it was right there- D'oh. Guess my wife is right after all when she tells me to really look under something just don't pick it up and put it down. But I don't let her go near my shop. I sure enough won't find the tool I need cause I know where everything is. Thanks again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluetickhound Posted May 22, 2012 Report Share Posted May 22, 2012 Glad to help. There also a great thread on color schemes for sunfish I dredged up on the search function. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EdL Posted May 23, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 23, 2012 Your right. I searched using keywords - pumpkinseed, sunfish, panfish, redear but not Nemo . And there are some guys that can flat out do some amazing work. Looks better than the real deal. I always try to use the search function before asking on a thread but this one got me. Searched the whole forum, subforum and How-to subforum. Even searched the internet on fish carving and taxidermy sites. But sometimes the key is using the right search word or words. But one thing for sure - just ask for help on this forum. There are some great support out there. This makes this my main website. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
