Planning to paint up some clown patterns today, there are a few different patterns out there and I just can't decide on a bright yellow back or gold. Which do you guys prefer? Thanks in advance for all feedback

I usually like the color to lean more towards gold... there used to be a jerkbait that I used when I first started fishing that had more of a brown/green back and clown color scheme; kind of like a green pumpkin color almost! I was real young and for the life of me can't remember the name of the brand... I do remember how many fish I caught on that bait though! Whatever color you do decide on, I know they'll look great! Your skills are amazing!

Well I shot one really quick on a crankbait because I have a lot more of them to spare, it's by no means a finished product was literally a 10 minute paint job.

What do you guys think about the colors?
