My First Poison Swing Tail
« on: 05/09/22 19:13 UTC »
Finished my first Poison Swing Tail today.
3/8 oz. Candy red base coat, candy blue sprinkled on top.
I like the way the candy blue settled in the lower eye sockets.

That's a slick looking finish Lines.

It would look even better with a bigger eye filling up the eye socket.  :)

Nice.

Nice.
I thought so too, but I ordered the wrong size, so instead of waiting on more, I just decided to use them.
Live & learn  :)

Looks good Lines.  I have been thinking about pouring a bunch up as well.

Thank you efishnc.
Got more of the effect I was after with the bucktail this time.
After watching Jwirth and smalljaw videos I learned a few tricks. Thanks Guys!!
I was looking for more of a hackle style rather than a tail.
