Ok, I look at custom painted baits websites to get different ideas of paint schemes. I visited https://www.joescustombaits.com/product/ad_listings/show_category/3 and looked at blue rock craw and blue texas craw. In the description it states "The entire bait is dusted with a iridescent blue to give the bait a blue sheen over the brown, a really great looking craw pattern." and the top and upper sides dusted with a shimmering blue. " So I think the bait has a hint of blue over the bait. I guess what I imagine is when I look at the bait at right angle I see the base color, but if I look at it from an angle I will see a hint of the colors over the base color. My question is how is that done? I tried to take a color, say blue and then took transparent base and made the paint really light. Tried it but it just muddied up the paint scheme. Also thought about doing my paint scheme, then dipping bait (KBS Diamondfinish) letting dry then spraying the color. Also will iridescent paint be the key. as I do not have any nor have I ever painted with it.
I guess the other way of describing what I want, is take a colored plastic film and look at your bait through it. You see the bait but it has the hue of the plastic colored sheet.
It probably does not make sense what I am trying to do, but if anyone has a suggestion, thanks in advance. I did email the web site asking how, but never received a response.
