I just realized I don't have any FLAPTAIL plugs :) Nice stuff Steve. Bet that swimmer will stay right up nice on top with a pisser wiggle. Poplar swims nice.

Theey are mostly inks not paints and yes they are airbrushed on. It coats better and sprays much better. Daler and Rowney is an English ink making firm. I bought the Macau Green and light pink at a close-out and not knowing anybetter decided to try them. Well they work excellent and I found that Michaels sell it. It comes in three packs in the pearlescent colors at around 12 bucks a package for 3 bottles. Goes a long way and they have a ton of pearlescent colors. I love the stuff. Again an accidental find that worked out for the best. The airbrush cleans up no problem.

Oh yeah you get three different colors per pack.

What a great find! Got to see if the local shop carries the product!
Sweet stuff!
