@@134rwa Thanks Russell ! I feel like I learn something new with every bait I paint, whether it’s with airbrush control, color blending or the clear coat process there’s so much to figure out but I am really enjoying the whole thing. Spending some time in the shop with the guy who I got Kersmacks from next week and am gonna take that time to soak up as much information on painting as I can, he is a master when it comes to creating amazing lures. Thanks again.

Well that one was a challenge all right. Guessing you'll probably avoid those in the future, but if not, I'd source them unassembled or something to aid in the epoxy step. Then again, you'd probably have to have a way to have it assembled temporarily for the paint job to look consistent. Guess there's some things in life that just don't have a shortcut, and that's ok.

Looking great as always Don, keep up the great work. You mention your gun giving you troubles. Not sure what needle size you are using with pearls but I have found a size 5 needle is a must, a 3 can work but its a hit and miss. One other tip I can offer is keep the needle guard off when spraying, and lightly dampen a paper towel with your cleaner. From time to time use it to pinch off the needle tip of paint that can build up and dry. Keep up the great work!! Looking forward to the next video.

Will definitely be putting this tip into practice on my next paint job. Always appreciate pointers from other painters. Thanks !

Great looking baits. We use Firetiger for pike,walleye, and musky in stained water in Canadian water. For something different, you can go over the base colors with Createx Candy2O mixed five parts UVLS to one part candy, then put on 7-10 layers of candy. Gotta go very light coats and use cool air to dry well between coats. Little paint, lots of air. Little paint, lots of air It makes a deep gloss that looks like you could reach into it. The more coats, the deeper it looks. The candy comes in two shades of yellow, orange, two greens, blue, red, brown, purple, and black. I’ve seen few baits besides mine that do this. I want something different from what Walmart or Bass Pro sell. Anyway, nice video. Thx

@@Indyjeeplover Thanks, I catch a lot of Chain Pickerel up here and when I get in waters with Pike, Fire Tiger is my go to bait. Thanks for info on the Candy2O, I’ve been wanting to try some of that as well as some color shifting paints. Will definitely do some baits using both of those in the near future. Thanks again !
@Indyjeeplover
@Indyjeeplover Ай бұрын
If you try Candy2O, Createx has a lot of how to videos. It’s best to mix very well in a small cup and let it sit for ten minutes before spraying. It takes a little time for the chemicals to emulsify. Many of the videos I’ve seen for lures are using it incorrectly according to Createx. The gloss you get with candy is impressive particularly when finished with Tru-Coat. Candy colors, particularly the darker ones are very intense and must be thinned or you won’t get the effect. I’m going to switch to 4053 High Gloss UVLS and 4021 reducer. The 4053 should give even more shine. I prefer high gloss as I want my lures to pop color wise. You might try a perch pattern with Pearlized Pineapple Yellow for the belly and Pearlized Green for the back,then apply Candy Lemon Yellow over the belly and Candy Emerald Green over the back. I used one on a jerk bait for musky and it worked very well

@RaggedEdgeLureWorks
@RaggedEdgeLureWorks Ай бұрын
Thank you Capt. All of the airbrushes I use have a 3.5 mm tip size. I have one that has interchangable tips / needles of 2.0 , 3.5 & 5.0 but I have yet to try any of the sizes besides 3.5. I think when I am priming lures or painting a whole lure in a single color I may try the 5.0 because I have a lot of issues keeping my brushes running smoothly and not clogging. Another reason for that I suspect is that I run most of my paints straight out of the bottle and do not thin them with H2O or a reducer and I think that might reduce the number of times I have to stop and flush out my airbrush, which as you can imagine is very frustrating. Still learning as I have only been painting with an airbrush sine Feb of this year. Thanks for watching !

I hope to have enough inventory built up that I don’t have to worry about painting durning the prime fishing season.
