Griffond Posted September 2, 2013 Report Share Posted September 2, 2013 (edited) So was supposed to go fishing this weekend taking old retired vets and what not... well the weather didn't play nice for a good chunk of it sooo... I found a little piece of wood in the bottom of an old guys junk drawer and got my fillet knife out since I forgot my pocket knife at home... had alot of fun another neighbor in the building came over for a beer and saw what I was doing and went and got a couple pieces of sandpaper... couple hours later we were discussing color schemes lol. It was a blast... I am amazed I didn't cut my finger up making this lol. Who needs to fish when you can hear fishing stories from the back in the day.

Griffond Posted September 3, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 3, 2013 (edited) So yeah after much beer and a hacksaw and a sacrificed spinner bait and someones left over silver spinner from a walleye rig we have a complete body and a bunch of grinning old guys still debating what the best color is but the consensus seems to leaning towards blue like a blue rapala. Sorry the pic is a bit grainy it was dark and cell doesn't have the best camera. Edited September 3, 2013 by Griffond Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Griffond Posted September 17, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 17, 2013 Well I will finish this thread off with the end result of old guys debating over color and my horrible hand painting skills I guess I need to practice more with brush painting it's very difficult for me do since it never does what I want it to. I used acrylic paints from the craft store to paint this fyi... that might be part of it. Coated in D2T 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
