This lure didn't exactly turn out as expected, started with a nice bright reflective siding and sprayed it with transparent orange lacquer. Decided to spray the back with Alclad copper lacquer and use polished brass lacquer for the side markings. The copper looks more like brown to me and the polished brass has no real shine or contrast with the siding. Turned out looking more like muddy waters than anything else. 12" basswood, one rattle chamber, plastic lip.
