This med/ deep diver was fun to make. To achieve the lifelike look, I used pearl finger nail polish over acrylic, drew in the scales with an old bic pen and sealed it all with a 24 hour epoxy. It's a total fulfillment to catch fish on a lure you make but the biggest compliment I got from this one was a school of shad following it along, bumping it trying to spawn with it.

You captured the "look."    To achieve that, all the little details have to come together.  The scaling is especially well done.

   Fist bump.
