[Highpockets]

I bought some Wildlife Colors flip-flop paint from Van Dykes Taxidermy Supply and gave them a try on a couple poppers. The colors were blue-green and green-gold. The flip flop effect is apparent, but not dramatic like automotive paints, etc. When I went to ETex them, the Badger black around the eyes began to run. It had dried over night and was pre-warmed, so it should have been dry. After trying to save them, I just went all the way and created these "Alice Cooper Eyes". What the heck, they are just fishing plugs! I don't know if the problem was the paint or the E-tex. None of my top coats came out smooth, although they did harden well. I guess the jury is still out on these paints.

The copper popper in the second picture is Wildlife Colors metallic copper. It is a very nice color and went on and covered well. The bottom on the Nike is green-gold flip-flop. I would say that, generally, the wildlife paints are a bit thinner than createx.
