Spectacular......way too nice to fish. Looks like a photo finish over the top of foil.

Yes, the gill and mouth are carved and painted but the epoxy top coat's tend to fill them in.However I planned for that and did some "under-painting" and shading.
Thank's for looking,

HOLY COW!!!!...that thing is freaking amazing...would be perfect on some of the lakes I fish...can you do a foil fire crappie in a 6" model with a rattle chamber in the bait...if so how much would that cost...would like to get may hands on one for this early season stuff...

You are CRAZY TALENTED!

Put that thing in a glass case for crying out loud!

How many hours do you have in that bait?

Sweet! The underlying foil really adds to the look of the finished bait. I have to do a couple of foiled finishes for a customer who persuaded me to do them for him. Looks like the hard work should be worth it judging by this beauty.

After seeing that bluegill I think I will toss out my lure making stuff and give up. You are the master!
