alsworms Posted January 10, 2017 Report Share Posted January 10, 2017 From the picture I pulled up, it looks like it's just black over smoke with a bunch of blue flake. I don't see any pearl? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rika Posted January 10, 2017 Author Report Share Posted January 10, 2017 this is the one i said... the color name is "Blue Craw".... its a green pumpking craw... but i dont know how to add the blue thing... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SlowFISH Posted January 10, 2017 Report Share Posted January 10, 2017 I don't know how they do it - but if I was gonna try it (hobbist level)... i'd either sprinkle some fine glitter or highlight (blue) into the top half of the mold then just shoot the green... If you're worried about the blue "moving" when it's shot.... sprinkle the blue glitter/ higlight in and pour a little green over it - then shoot the rest.... that should keep it in place. Other option is to mix some clear with glitter/highlight - pour it in the mold - then shoot green behind it... That's how I'd try it - I'm sure the guys here have other/better ways... but that's where I'd start if other opinions aren't offered. j. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for your comment, I had already thought about doing that, but when you see the craw in different angles, it seems as if it had a pearl painting or something like that.. I thought there was a special type of paint to do that and to paint some other lures since that color has worked very well here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hpssports Posted January 10, 2017 Report Share Posted January 10, 2017 I've been looking at quite a few pictures of this color & it looks to be a green pumpkin/green pumpkin w/blue hi-lite & blue pearl powder laminate. When you use both pearl blue powder & hi-lite you get the blue outer sheen along with a deeper blue sparkle. Some pictures I've seen have been true laminates, while others have had a swirled look. To get the swirled look, just run the green pumpkin w/blue side a lot cooler than the green pumpkin side when you dual inject. Should give it some swirl.. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveMc1 Posted January 10, 2017 Report Share Posted January 10, 2017 It is a swirl colour, same as magic craw swirl. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TTDuckman Posted January 10, 2017 Report Share Posted January 10, 2017 This the blue craw I used to make. Gp was an opaque gp. Trans won't work as the whole thing will look green. For the blue I used 8 drops bears royal blue, 3 match heads of blue pearl and 3 match heads of blue hilight. Add just a pinch of .035 black flake. 1 cup. These were shot as laminates, but works great when pulsed for a swirled look. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TTDuckman Posted January 10, 2017 Report Share Posted January 10, 2017 That gp in a solid gp bait was barely see through, on a laminate it was a tad more trans. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
