Thanks for the kind words.

The paint on the needle is actually a bright yellow and pink "fogged over" with Createx Chameleon Gold. It really tones down the brighter colors and helps smooth out the color transitions. It also adds some color changing effects where the colors are blended. Too bad Createx decided to discontinue it. I'm down to a little over an ounce. I've tried doing the same with Pearl White but it doesn't have the same effect.

Sorry but I don't know too much about the egg plugs. I've seen others build them and wanted to give it a shot. I used the basic lip types and hook positions I've seen others use. I have a few others primed that I'll try different hooks and lips on in the spring. I'm hoping it will be a good peanut imitation in the fall.

Happy Holidays and Thanks Again!!!


MAC,

Most definately! Let's talk some more in the spring.


Striperhound,

Nice try but the needles already spoken for. It's going into a swap.
