  1. Sure did . Used eye shadow heat sealed it with a heat gun just like alumilite powder . Dipped it in clear LC plastic paint . Kinda gives a fellow a creepy feeling going to the Check out with lacey bloomers to cut up for scales and eye shadow for paint patterns . Best to buy a cheap birthday card so they don't look at you like your a cross dresser .

  4. Jack, I am a beginner brush painter. I am learning to paint lures with small water color brushes. http://www.walmart.c...-6-set/17690352 I am following a method taught by Hans Nordin of Sweden. I was introduced to this by Diemai. Currently I am painting with "folk art"acrylics. http://www.walmart.c...t-2-oz/17300135 But any paint maybe used. The key to success is to thin the paint. I store thinned paint in a set of little plastic painter sets. Using a color wheel the paints may be mixed to just about any color you imagine. I use water based paints because of health, safety,cost and availabiity. I may paint on the couch or kitchen table without much concern of hurting myself or my family. The cost for this set is minimal. I would say for less than 15 bucks you could have nice setup. The little storage cups can be found at dollar tree for a buck. They of course have paint in them already. It up to you to throw this paint away or use. Might be good to play around with? http://www.dollartre...o?method=search Once you have your paint ,brushes and lure then it is up to your imagination. The first key to achieve soft shading is thin paint. The second is to use very little paint. Paint in very thin layers. Stencils may also be used or taping off patterns may also be done Just as in airbrushing. Her is an example of my latest lure using the above method. So far I have only done a dozen using the Nordin method. http://www.outdoor.s...din/wobbler.htm Prior to this I used the taping and stencil method. Here is an example of this style work. If your interested in learning more or have a question I have not answered here feel free to send me a message . Best of luck. Vic
