Muskie-kid, experiment, experiment, experiment, experiment, and lastly, experiment. Have fun. use water based paints, as long as you use a clear coat. If you mess up with waterbased paints, you can run them under the sink and erase it. I, as well as some other guys here use Createx, as well as Autoair. I use both, and mix colors to get the desired effect/ color. Again, have fun!

If you dont have an airbrush, you can still make some nice looking baits using rattle cans. Find some mesh or anything with a scale like pattern and go wild. Also, you could expiriment with tape to make bars like those in a bumblebee pattern. I like your idea of using nail heads for dots. I hope this helps

You can get a cool effect with enamel paint dripped on water and dipping your lure through it it makes a cool swirl effect
