    badger makes some for beginners but you can pick any airbrush up and it will do the job
    if you have any questions ill be more than happy to help you out, or if you want some baits painted let me know

    It doesnt necessarily have to be airbrush. Im planning on buying some Taxidermy paints.

    IMO, taxidermist paint will result in a far more realistic finish.


    BTW, that rainbow lure is beautiful, Dropshot man.



    I got a whole lot of designs im gonna use.


    This design needs more than just airbrush, it also needs acrylics for the fine details. Plus you will need clear-coat to protect the finish.

    Feel free to use any of my designs as a template, vanilla

    I didnt get to fish till today, fri.

    I managed a piggie sargo in the harbor, but the damn sandcrabs just wouldnt show up until way later around 2 pm. But on the plus side two scoops and i had my limit of crabs.

    The south swell wasnt too bad this time, but there just wasnt bait until it was too crowded with swimmers.

    Didnt see a blackball flag the whole day, which was odd.
