First run with new airbrush

[Slipkey]

I've been fartin' around painting lures with spray paint cans for about a year now and finally picked up an inexpensive airbrush set.  Needless to say, I've been holed up in the basement on and off for a week.    Here's a photo of the first set, not yet clear-coated.

The Tennessee Shad doesn't render right because the of the shadow in the photo, but it, actually, turned out just the way I wanted.

LOW (Lake of the Woods) Cisco needs to be a bit lighter, but it's not bad for a first try and I've got to mix a little better purple for the alewife color but it's been a fun learning experience.

  Look good to me John.  I bet they catch fish.

I have had my eye on all the airbrush stuff for a while now too. Those things look awesome! What spray gun did you end up getting. I'm thinking about getting a really cheap one to start off just to get my feet wet.

Thanks, Jeff!

@Schooly I purchased the relatively inexpensive Master Airbrush Kit.  It's a pretty good system, though the water separator off the compressor lets some condensation in the lines, from time to time, when the compressor gets hot.  I'm pretty happy with it, overall.  The guy at Dakota Lakes Tackle has some nice tutorial videos here.  He also sells some of the best unpainted blanks I've found.
