by taking a drill bit or S-hook and dipping the round end into the paint then placing that where I want the eyes. Get what I'm saying???

Looks like a fish catcher Chris... I hope it does well for you!

I took some time to doctor the photo up a bit.... Next bait, practice on more even patterns and fading...

A great place to learn to airbrush is on a piece of plastic.... Find a plastic toy or something that you dont mind tossing in the end and just paint and paint till your skills improve... You bait should catch a nice bass if the action is good.



Great Day!

Chip

Now that you got it finished any idea on how much it cost to make LOL, or how much time it took you? Nice crank, hope it catches your biggest bass yet for you. Man if Chip is giving you suggestions you probably should listen to him, he makes some of the best cranks I have ever used. He is a "ARTIST" when it comes to cranks.

take a drill bit, the size you want your eyes to be. Take the cylinder end(opposite of corkscrew) dip that into whatever color you want your eye to be, but just enough to get the bottom wet. Then take the bottom and but it on your crank wherever you want your eye. Repeat for second side.

I see seems like a good idea. I usually use molded eyes but that is an idea.
