Thanks. Let me start by saying I'm a little embarrassed that I ever took a picture of those, but yes,they worked very well in spite of the hatchet paint job. I have since changed my painting methods and use a airbrush, no powder, vinyl or brushes. I took a page from the guys that paint cranks, and use Createx airbrush paint. So far I have been pleased with the results. It seems to be durable and with a clear coat on them they are not affected by soft plastics, which is how I like to fish them. Painting them is not easy,that is if you want something more than single colors. Here is a small sample of some of my newer models, every time I do a batch they turn out a little bit better it seems. Oh by the way those are some nice tubes you are doing. It's kinda satisfying to catch fish on your own lures ain't it.
