Sweet first brushing
 
1 Attachment(s)
First attempt with the new airbrush I got from Santa. A little sweet water perch that I hope the smallies on Champ will crush. 4.25" at 1oz.

Swam nice in the bathtub - just under the surface with a nice wiggle. Have to see what it will do once the water softens up here. Made several blanks. Just wanted to make sure it swam okay before I painted the others. Think I will have to finish some in peanut for the salt.

Let me know what you think.

Thanks - I owe a lot to you for giving me the skinny on sealing with Helmsman and priming with BIN when I was starting out a year ago.

Looks like you'd need to store that one in an aquarium and remember to feed it.

i love the Plug
 
you rock!

the Photo doesn't do it justice at all....... however just mho

i know because i adjusted the sharpness on it 5 times to no avail

you either moved or the camera wasn't good enough

i suggest you make a light box which is a place to photograph your plug
that makes it appear so clear it looks almost 3 dimensional

would whom ever created the light box please dig up the thread !

It is a phonecam picture thus the fuzzyness. I'll get out the real digital tonight and post a better one.

Thanks - the fuzzy pic hides a world of imperfections.
