Flames

Sorry Mikey, I failed. My airbrush nozzle is just not fine enough to do tiny detail on a small lure + I just don't have the paint skills or the stencils.

Hey bennie,

I've only 2 comments:

1. If that's a failure then I wonder what a success is...

2. It will only be a failure IF you get no fish after a few trials! It may not catch one or two anglers but I'm sure a GT will smash that popper!

Fantastic work as usual!

Thanks John. I know the fish will love it, was just looking at the pic of the tank Mikey posted. That is some fine art! These are more "tribal".

THAT WILL DO !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[shagnrelease]

that looks very smart...regardless.

Yup, you failed.

The green flames were done with a DeVilbiss airbrush.

You don't need a fine nozzle, you need a big one.

Leave the vinyl cutter for the sign okes.

May I ask you to do a tutorial for us on airbrushing please, in the spirit of Sealine and sharing.

well done !!!

An expert i am, not, but, wouldn't it help if you restrict the ammount of paint per pass, meaning that say instead of doing max 10 passes per colour, youd restrict the ammount of paint to the ammount that you'd get that effect after say @ least 50 strokes, just wondering?

I share nothing. You and the Tackle Whore are the exspurts.

That's the spirit.

Innovate don't immitate.

Go hug a popper or maybe a vinyl cutter.

You're a group hug all on your own.

I would like to give it a go. But more for myself, for the enjoyment. I just found that when I started it, the popper is so small unlike a bike tank and to put such fine detail in such a small place won't be easy. But I will investigate the process.

To paint poppers like that tank is not realistic unless you are making it for a showcase.
