Looking for 3D adhesive tape

[Mr. Sandman]

I am looking for an adhesive product that would give me a 3D surface texture like fish scales. Texture is more important than a holographic look, I want it to feel like scales...any thoughts?

heres one from luremaking dot com

dollar per foot....

other than that you'd have to buy mica and trim it round

something like this might help if you want to create scale texture

[Raven]

but i wonder if it has texture or it just appears to have texture

[scottw]

it does, it is a relief plate for making scales in clay, they make rubber ones as well, I don't know exactly what the end use is for Sandman but if he can create a relief scale surface with something like this and apply the holo tape to it/paint/leaf...might work? sounds like he wants textured scales , they have different size scales as well...

i have a personal theory that fish have good enough sensory perception from their lateral line that they can differentiate between hard and soft baits

or on a wooden plug that has say a soft side or eel skin gives off a
better impersonation of real bait... so threads like these i find
real interesting to say the least.

i also think magnets should be used instead of just lead...
but that's a whole different subject.
