I have pretty much given up with those time consuming paint jobs that always fall short of what I want them to look like. I just haven't got the time to practice to get very good at painting. By the time I get around to painting my stuff I am usually in a rush as the season is usually close by. I accepted that a few years ago. I just go with what I can do and leave the really pretty stuff to the artist's, which a do enjoy seeing. I shoot more for nice blending of colors than the scales and gills and other assorted effects. I just suck at them. I like to spend more time on the fit and finish part although the way my epoxy has looked this year the finish part has gone out the window too. I do enjoy looking at the guys work that can do them though, but no envy. I want mine to be fished.
