These still need one more coat of E-Tex, but the effect is beautiful.
These were done in Black Gold.
I'll be doing more in other lure styles.
Top Prey is there just to show basic black.

Looks good!

What does it cost for a single bait painted?

Do you mean a repaint, or the cost of one of these lures?
The lures are smaller than the regular Perkas by about an inch and a half.
I only got a dozen blanks and did half in Black chrome and half in Crappie.
The Crappie are $27.50 delivered, the Chrome are $30.
Repaints? Haven't thought about it.

Post above should have read $22.50 for the Black Crappies.
That's the end of those blanks, then it's more Perkettes and a 9" Perkette model after those.
Going steam-lined and reducing some bulk....wish I could do the same with my gut.

Totaly Awesome Beav,
But when they get the black chrome in their hands, they will see what we do when we paint them. The picts just can't show the real results.
keep up the fantastic work Beav. Looking good.

Yes, it took me about 20 pictures to get a couple to come out even close to what it looks like.
Yet if you look at them in the house, they don't look that spectacular.
But you should see them in the aquarium!!!!
