PRACTICE !

I always liked the job you guy do with your (airbrushes) reallllly liked the FLAME JOBS, so I thought Id give it a shot on something BIG to see what I could come up with. this was a piece of ROAD KILL, I picked up a while back, it's OAK, gave it a sanding an a little more shape an sealed it, primed it, an shot it BLACK, then taped it an cut in the flames, pulled the extra tape off an shot it RED, ORANG, YELLOW.
then pulled the rest of the tape off an put one of Mikes GLOW in the DARK eye in, an coated it. Mike gave me some 8/0 hooks he had laying around an put them on SCREWED the BELLY HOOK in close to the body, just some thing different as if Im going to fish it no way it's 8.5oz my first Rattle Can FLAME JOB
GOOD LUCK GOOD PLUGGIN
