Snax, those look great! I wish I had more time (and skill) to paint like that. How long does it take you to paint a bait? I should ask, how long did it take you at the beggining to paint a bait like that.

Nice!

I appreciate the comments, thanks.
What takes a long time is the entire process as each step is critical in achieving the finished results. I have to weight and balance each one to perfection then I test every single bait I make before painting it.

It's hard to say how much time is spent on any one step as it differs from bait to bait. Lets just say that I am VERY detail oriented and it is reflected in the finished product.
