PHP Warning: Use of undefined constant VBA_SCRIPT - assumed 'VBA_SCRIPT' (this will throw an Error in a future version of PHP) in ..../includes/functions_navigation.php(802) : eval()'d code on line 1 Is anyone making any Lures?
Just curious if anyone out there in Ausfish land is making any lures - I need help or advice painting and soft plastic moulding - anyone currently using an airbrush?
have been making and spraying my own lures for over ten years, if you need a hand I n might be able to help with info and tricks. It beats hell out of the pprice you pay in a shop and gives you a lot of room for playing aroundwith colour and action etc.
yeah .... make a lot of own.... use a airbrush.... but aint no gun airbrush operator . Have not poured any soft plastics tho. Maybe of some help... send us a PM if ya want.
Cheers Les

I've painted a few lures with airbrush over the years (too many to count), takes a bit of practice and you learn from mistakes. a trick to good air brushing is to make good patterns from the start, XRay film is a good medium for making some of the templates some patterned rags work wonders as well. I also found that if you only need a small quantity of a certain colour you can just buy holts touch up spray cans, I usually empty some of the contents into a spare airbrush bottle and then use the paint through the airbrush. To finish off the lure you should coat them with two pack polyurethane, 3 good coats gives a toffee apple finish.
