Pete, that is a cool affect...I don't know how you can get so much detail on such a small lure...micro painting...I tried a few small baits and had a very hard time just trying to hang onto them, let alone paint them...fine job mate!

 

Thank you all for your generous comments - I find it easy to carve these, although they take some time painting and drying, but probably no where near as long as some of your larger baits. I like that you can never accurately predict what the finished color will be with pearls. We have a dam here where these colors fish really well, but another dam only 10 miles away, they are useless, wish I knew why! !.
I have another color on the drying wheel and will post it in the next few days, does not look as 'nice' to me but maybe it will to the fish. pete
