I have that book too. some nice inspiration in it.
I like the dace color a lot too, redwing blackbird, purple eel, and yellow flash.
regarding the factory conditions-we tend to get so caught up getting a high end airbrush and spending a lot of time perfecting the paint and layering etc. and finding just the right masking material scales etc, but those ladies did beautiful work with what appear to be rudimentary (by today's standards) airbrushes ans mesh screens-though it looks like many of their masking jigs (for gills and faces) were custom made metal masks.

Go Bears!

Hi Warren

Yes still swapping with some huys in MN. Jeff has a few spooks that he is painting up. I have a couple decoys that I need to send to Trevor. Over the summer, Trevor painted a couple spooks one he sent back (I still need to etex it-really cool folk art pattern) and another he fished. He caught a nice 38" musky on it, then later lost it to a LARGE musky.

Go Bears!
