Default Custom painted

I recently got a call from someone who fishes as an amateur in New England who I am good friends with and needed to get a bait that looked like a Dace...this is what I cooked up for him..I believe the tourney is this weekend..This was my first attempt..it should really come to life once the finish goes on...

The lure looks great, and I think your splatter looks fine.....I like using a Popsicle stick for any design I paint that has a splatter, but a stiff bristle brush will also work to flip some paint onto whatever your painting. I think I have better control using the Popsicle stick.

I assume that was his attempt at humor in reference to this thread which was going on around that same time, especially page 2 of it.
