StoneCoal Tackle Posted April 1, 2007 Report Share Posted April 1, 2007 Nice paint work! The top one is my favorite. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doomdart Posted April 1, 2007 Report Share Posted April 1, 2007 I would say you used the wide gap comb method over the scale on the top two photos, complete with bluegill style dot. To quote the Kool Aid man, OH YEAH! For sure you should start carving them up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Groby Posted April 1, 2007 Report Share Posted April 1, 2007 Really good work, they looks realy great! Is ther someone who can say me where I can get some blanks as in the first and second picture ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goldenshinner Posted April 1, 2007 Report Share Posted April 1, 2007 GRoby: Grusstich aus der USA. I believe Cabelas has such a thing. request a freshwater fishing catalog, and a saltwater fishing catalog. also you can try Stamina tackle. I think there are other sources on this very website. oh im new also but welcome Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lunker Jim Posted April 2, 2007 Report Share Posted April 2, 2007 Very nice! That top one is awesome. I've been trying to get the color combination for a bluegill/sunfish pattern, but can't seem to get it right. Are you using Createx paints?

clamboni Posted April 3, 2007 Author Report Share Posted April 3, 2007 Groby, those actually are the janns blanks. The springer....it's a lucky craft knockoff. Top one is 78 size, second is 100. All of them are that blank. Jim, most of the colors are createx. The blue on the gill and tail on the bluegill one is an acrylic based craft paint I found cleaning my garage, lol. For the back and stripes, I was trying to make a brown color and could only get grey, then I added some orange and got that color. Don't even ask me mix ratios cause I have no clue. Oh, and BTW, I guess these two were good enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
