NEO_LURES Posted December 3, 2015 Report Share Posted December 3, 2015 Thanks. The craws look great too. Oh yeah on the Spaz Stix....I'm just doing fun stuff. I have the respirator but prefer to use Createx and only painting lures here and there keeping it simple and safe. Thanks for the warning. No problem man,check it out if you get a chance,the paint is some of the best on the market and has amazing results Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mark poulson Posted April 5, 2016 Report Share Posted April 5, 2016 I would only add a very light overspray of black on the back, thinned so it's almost transparent, and done in really light coats, so you can quit when you hit what you want. Otherwise, you baits look great as they are! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chuck Young Posted May 2, 2016 Report Share Posted May 2, 2016 Found this website that uses the CMYK format (Cyan,Magenta,Yellow and Black). Mixed up a rootbeer color using one of the goldenrod formulas then added a few drops of tangerine. Yeah, I know, wish there was just one rootbeer color we could mix instead of the many out there. http://www.color-chart.org/cmyk-color-chart.php great post and comprehensive chart!

stretcher66 Posted October 26, 2016 Report Share Posted October 26, 2016 here is a couple of handy tools for getting a idea for mixing and matching your colors. First is a app for google chrome you can download for free at the web store for chrome. its called color pick eyedropper it will pick the color out of a webpage and give you different type values for it. second is this page here http://trycolors.com/ that lets you mix colors together by percentages to try to match your target. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That trycolors.com is a pretty cool tool. I messed around with it and got a few ideas to try on some colors I never could get exactly how I wanted. I did notice that it doesn't quite match my experience in how some colors overpower another with airbrush paints, but it still helps figure a new direction to try. One shade of brown I want, I never thought about adding blue, but after messing around with this, that's my next step. In my experience, red changes yellow a lot more than it does with the simulator. Ratios also seem to be a little different with black and yellow. Thanks for the link! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jolicious Posted January 26, 2018 Report Share Posted January 26, 2018 Good evening everyone. Any chance that one of you can please help me find the schedules for the Wiggle Wart V82 Purple Tiger? I have only been sent a couple pictures, and never seen one in person. That purple looks like some mix of candy red with a hint of candy purple? Heck I don't know - I've tried a few different things. Any help / advice is greatly apprecciated. Joe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chuck Young Posted January 28, 2018 Report Share Posted January 28, 2018 For Purple Tiger try Createx fluorescent violet over the yellow base (possibly fluo yellow). The fluorescent colors are translucent - not opaque. So the yellow darkens the purple a little. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
