Outstanding job, best natural craw paint job I have seen, awesome

[@customlurepainter]

Thank you

[@stripermanly]

Very nice look. I luv my color shift paints. And you’re right. Only so many schemes that can be painted. It’s the little details that each of us apply to our baits that make them unique to us

[@customlurepainter]

Thank you

[@garyhinds9634]

Thanks for the honesty and insight on lure painting Frank. To me it's all about the fun and accomplishment of creating something cool looking. Thanks!!! to guys and gals like you that have KZbin amount I've only been at it about 6 months, but I've already painted over 100 baits for friends that have seen my work without even trying. Thanks!!! again Frank for a great channel, keep up the good work it's much appreciated.

[@charleyhendersonj.r.6297]

That is one awesome craw....glad you touched on the subject of people copying others...because I'm a new lure painter, and I've written down alot of lure patterns (from multiple people) and yes I've written down quite a few of your patterns... but I've noticed that mine looks nothing like the originals, (just don't look the same)... plus I always thought that if others copy your idea the you are on the right path... glad you brought up the subject... keep up the great content

[@customlurepainter]

Thank you for the support

[@RoggiesRigs]

Where did you find those sweet blue eyes? Nice looking bait man 🤙

[@customlurepainter]

Thank you, backwater outfitters

[@customlurepainter]

Thank you, backwater outfitters

[@williamharrison9200]

I was wondering about how much of the eye candy do you put in the hvls?? Get me in the ball park and I’ll figure it out from there..!! Thanks so much!!

[@customlurepainter]

Half the size of a green pea.

[@pablocarpi]

I'm from Brazil and I follow your paintings on artificial baits, you work very well. I wonder if you can tell me where you buy these beautiful eyes for the lures and stencils used for the painting? Thank you and congratulations for the great work. Sorry, I'm using Google Translate to write this message.

[@customlurepainter]

I buy some from Lurebuild and I make my own eyes

[@shaneburnette2743]

I love your work it's amazing. I have a question on billed baits and clear coat. I used to dip in kbs bit recently switched to 2 part epoxy sold by Lure Build. It looks awesome on lipless and swimbaits but I have either bubbles or stripes on bills sometimes both. Is there something I'm doing wrong or a trick to it. I can do dip on them but really like the look of this epoxy. Thanks and keep putting out great videos

[@customlurepainter]

Thank you , I put epoxy in warm water for 15 minutes before I use, then I brush on and use a small butane torch and go around lure to eliminate bubbles.

[@shaneburnette2743]

@Clarks Hill Custom Lures I do that on the body it works. It's the lips on Crankbaits I have trouble with. I tried torch on bills and it pops bubbles but doesn't seem to help on lines. I'll try warm water and see if it works. Thanks a lot

[@adamprice7946]

Clark I’ve decided Im going to start painting my own lures. What airbrush pump and gun do you recommend? Any info helps! Im basically clueless to this.

[@customlurepainter]

My name is Frank, Clark’s Hill is the name of the Lake by me lol You could start with really any airbrush set to start to see if your going to like it. Masters has some affordable kits to start.

[@adamprice7946]

@@customlurepainter lol my bad! I’ve looked at the masters kits and thats probably the direction I’ll go, I can always upgrade. I love your videos. Im an avid kayak fisherman and 90% of the time I’m targeting bass. Can’t wait for this season to kick off!

[@zuitzooter]

Where can I get that tool to turn the lure for paint? TIA

[@vio3667]

If the fish saw this, they would die of heart attack. 🤣

[@morrowoutdoors1336]

I have a guy that buys from 15 different painters

[@thefishingfinatic]

Yea, them eye's are sweet with that pattern!

[@customlurepainter]

Thank you

[@markoharoldoronearmedpoohb7816]

I don’t copy, I ain’t that good, but! When pattering after natural forage there will be lookalikes! But going full Picasso, I can see that as a copying issue, which to me should be a form of flattery! Folks are thinned skinned. I almost always lean towards natural forage patterns, yes colors change, but the overall lines are of forage patterns. I like you craws paint scheme, you are very talented! Most times I’m watching someone paint a lure, not for a painting lesson but a lesson in what is needed, how they use the tools around them, paint and what they use and more importantly what’s on their bench that can help me! Most times what is not said, is what I need!

[@customlurepainter]

Agreed

[@djradrs199]

AS Always .... This Look SWEET !! and for those who WHINE & CRY about Copying .... GET OFF YOU TUBE and watch your own videos by yourself 🤪!! Thee Endd QUESTION ??? will the UVLS shoot thru .30 needle ?? or do you have to go larger / or add reducer ?? Inquiring minds want to know ... 🧐 side Note I purchased from Amazon these Iridescent paints that are pretty nice ( cept the Red Is more on the pinkish side ) ABEIER Iridescent Acrylic Paint, Set of 18 Chameleon Colors, 2 oz/60ml Bottles, Color-shifting, the purple flash looks similar to this yours...

[@customlurepainter]

Thank you, uvls will spray through a .3, just reduce it

[@jamieethridgeriverbassfish5688]

I just watched you're dirty shad pattern and really like that pattern. My question for you where could I find the stand you use to paint?

[@customlurepainter]

Thank you, Amazon

[@filthmusic]

What size hooks and split rings are you putting on your grenades? I just got some Im not sure how big I should go.

[@customlurepainter]

I use number 2 split rings which vary with company lol, and number 2 hooks

[@paulmctaggart5049]

Love the color. Can't figure out the color shift mix ratio though.

[@customlurepainter]

Thank you, I use the size of a pea with color shift

[@groundedfilms5877]

What number uvls do you use?

[@customlurepainter]

UVLS 4050

[@briancaloway1955]

Hey Clark’s custom quick question where do you get those awesome eyes from?? I’m trying to find them.

[@brocher6337]

super beaux👍

[@customlurepainter]

Thank you

[@michaelvanbuskirk8845]

House Of Kolor are among the absolute best paints money can buy.

[@cathedralImages]

Brilliant!! What's the gun you are using ?

[@customlurepainter]

Thank you!! Creos PS771 .18

[@cathedralImages]

@@customlurepainter thank you.

[@groundedfilms5877]

Looks awesome, man. I really like that design and the color shift pearl. Keep up the awesome work as always 👊👊👊

[@customlurepainter]

Thank you

[@ericbuss8484]

Where did you get that rotating stand to hold the lure and what is it called? Thanks.

[@garyhinds9634]

Thanks!!!! to guys and gals like you that have KZbin channels I've been able to learn an unbelievable amount of knowledge on painting baits. Sorry it messed up this sentence when it posted???

[@customlurepainter]

Thank you for your support

[@fishingwithvin]

I appreciate your information man and it’s helped me so much! Thank you 32:31

[@customlurepainter]

Thank you for the support

[@clyderussell6005]

Great looking paint scheme. And i whole heartedly agree there are only so many patterns you can paint. I try to be original but sometimes following someone else's painting do something different to make it your own.

[@customlurepainter]

Thank you

[@badboycustomlures1469]

Awesome video the color shift craw looks amazing

[@customlurepainter]

Thank you

[@SOC-Outdoors]

Nice Video! I have been looking at getting a few color shift paints and have been talking myself out of it. Looks like its time to start playing with it!

[@customlurepainter]

Add some dimension to the lures, you will like it.

[@SOC-Outdoors]

@@customlurepainter I am very surprised at how good I am at this… I have never considered myself “artsy” but some of mine turn out really cool! I’m also really glad that you spoke on copying because being so new to this I am learning from all of you guys and have been worried about potential blowback when I use some of you and others techniques and it shows on the lures I will be using. I am selling lures with custom messages and logos, etc. but keeping the patterns simple and was worried what people would say

[@Руслан-и1м8е]

Very beautiful!

[@customlurepainter]

Thank you

[@craigwilliams6184]
