how is that done? looks kool. does that lip go all the way thru to the back???

wow

Here are some close ups but these aren't my creations , these are vintage Creek Chub lures from my collection . I WISH I created these lures and someday I hope to duplicate them , but an original Creek Chub lure had up to 14 coats of finish on them and thats why they still look great to this day .
Creek Chub was also the company that invented the metal lip and the technique of painting over mesh to create a scale pattern.
Creek Chub invented the Pikie, Surfster, Darter ..............
Gotta love um . :jump:

Oops , here's the close ups .
