My first attempts at airbrushing
« on: 12/29/16 17:33 UTC »
Got an airbrushing set up for Christmas and these are two of my first attempts.  I think I did pretty well for them being my first tries and I really can't wait to get some stencils and do a little more.  On the rootbeer pattern, I couldn't decide between a solid back or a splatterback so I did a little of both and it turned out pretty cool.

Those look real nice. I can see teeth marks waiting to be applied.

Thanks for all the kind words, guys.  I painted one up last night and epoxied it and only then did I realize I forgot to put the damn eyes on  :P  Oh well, the water in my main lake is usually pretty stained so I highly doubt that would ever matter to a fish; it's all about that action.

You should give it a try, I think you would enjoy it.  Finished up the rootbeer pattern and put on some super sharp Gammy hooks.

Not too kind, just observant and honest. Great Work!
