  1. Thanks Dale. Already posted in the Gallery. I appreciate the advice. More to come!

    First Musky Glider

    Finally got the first one done. Few things I'll do differently on the next run but am pleased with the overall outcome.
  3. Finally got everything I needed to finish up my first glider. I thought it turned out pretty well. There are a few things to tweak and perfect in the next go around but overall I am pretty happy with it. Huge thanks to those who I received advice from last week. Awesome board. I have also seen on older post where mods have mentioned only adding a pic if it helps to provide guidance to the topic in question. Not just "look what I made pics". Let me know how you guys normally go about doing this for future reference. Thanks!
  4. Thanks guys! I saw the search bar up there but haven't had time to browse through old posts yet. Maybe I'll get a second this evening. Got my paints in yesterday so I'm good to go now. One more question. Any suggestions for making stencils? I've seen how guys make the ones by taking a heatgun to plastic sheets while suctioning the stencil sheet down. What about simply cutting one out onto a thin plastic sheet? Only thing I can think of is to take my time and go at it with an Xacto knife.
  5. Hey guys. New to the board here. From West Virginia and just got into making musky lures. Mostly gliders and cranks made from several different types of wood. Have a handful of nice designs made up and ready to paint. Never airbrushed a day in my life. I'm definitely going to use Createx but wondering if someone could fill me in a little bit to help get me started. What are the differences between the transparent and opaque paints? I see a lot of colors in transparent but not as many colors in the other forms of paint. Is it okay to thin with windex? Should I lay down a solid white base, then a solid base of my primary color and then go from there or what? I plan on coating with Envirotex when I'm done. Any more info would be much appreciated! Thanks! Tyler
