My first try a repainting a crankbait.

[66KingFisher]

Well I finally got around to tryin my hand at repainting a crankbait and since a few others here had posted their recent lure creations I decided to share mine as well.

Either crank might be recognized by one of our members since it was sent to me as a gift with other lures after I lost all my stuff in the tornado...... They were a couple of cranks I received that I just didn't like the colors and decided i'd change them.....The Rapala shad rap was a scratched up chrome so I figured i'd try a flat sided bait also.

Being my first attempt I went with a simple design....something that didn't require a template....those will come later....hopefully...lol. I did use some prizm flake in one of the lower layers to get some flash....it looks cool in the sunlight...flashes all the colors of the rainbow....Guess thats what I'll call these....my Rainbow shad pattern....hahaha.

Thanks for looking and I'd love to hear your comments....PS...the flake is more noticable if you inlarge the pics to full size first.
