Shoot those are top shelf jigs, but I have a question and it also goes back to the swap jig. And you don't have to answer if you don't want to. But what are you using for eyes. I put that jig thru the paces and it held up very well. Folks not only are those some purdy jigs, but they are tough too...

I use Tulip paint for my eyes. Put dotes of it on a cool whip lid, tap the lid till the paint flattens out a little. Let dry overnight,take sharpie and put black dot on tulip paint dot. Pry off with a flat bladed x-acto knife. Put a dab of Sally Hansen on jig where your going to apply eye. Next day coat with D2T. It's cheap and my jigs can see. The eyes you buy look better on jigs but they get good money for em also.

Nice jigs! That chenille body looks a lot like the Estaz Grande for size. The Estaz Grande is 30mm stuff!

Devcon 2 ton Epoxy. Thin it with alcohol, just a couple of drops and it thins right out so you can use a brush to apply to jig head.
