Blue Moon - Chasing Bluegills

Blue Moon - Chasing Bluegills - 02/21/16 07:34 PM

The monster bass I normally chase get fat eating bluegills so I've been working on a few breeding and non-breeding custom paint designs on one of my favorite crank bodies. While I'm an old salt in the realm of photography and have been using an airbrush to glam up models and beauty queens for a long time, I've only recently been using my airbrushes to custom paint cranks. I always seem to have fun when I'm airbrushing...

Truly a thing of beauty. Would be hard for me to actually use it, just looks too pretty to throw in the water. up

I bet a bass would hit those like a freight train.

Many thanks for the encouraging words. I’m grateful for all the comments. Besides bluegills, craws are the most challenging pattern I’ve worked on so far. Below is a shot that shows my latest craw patterns along with some of the Wicked paint and Iwata airbrushes I’m using. Again, many thanks! ~ Blue Moon
