I finished painting the last of the stuff I turned for this year. I had lots of ideas from plugfest that I wanted to try.
Here's a darter ala angler229, and the other is similar to one of the Greek's. I put a little pearlex in the epoxy of the purplish one, trying to mimic something I think goo goo man did...
And some topwater, Made some new mack stencils after looking at mikecc's, took 3 or 4 tries but I finally got it right. the pink pogie one is a copy of something Vic's friend Scottie had painted in a swap a few years ago.
I had an interesting 'new' problem this week. I started using wire from a new box of tig wire, and when I was wiring plugs a was getting black smudges on em. I looked at my hands and they were dirty even though I washed them before I started. Ends up each & every wire is dirty. I ended up taking a rag with acetone on it and when I wrap it around the wire and pull the wire thru it and I get a nice black streak from every wire...
