Real pretty paint job. You may find that the plug will not have the side to side swimming action without angling the center joints. It will chip when casting also.

Nice paint. Is that the blow it around method, the rub with tinfoil method, or the water dip method?

Same idea as the tinfoil method. Wet paint thick on wet paint, then crinkle some tinfoil and scrape things up a bit. Supposedly you can also put thick wet over thick wet and blow it around with your airbrush. Or you can swirl paint (as Pfluger did) by floating a few drops of oil based paint on water, mixing them up, then dipping your lure in and out once.
