Y'all better sit down...

I've been busy painting baits and in the next couple of days when they're all finished you're in for a treat. It's amazing what you can do with a bit of time and a airbrush.

Turns a ordinary slab into a masterpiece and them tail spinners are works of art!

I was always amazed, fascinated and well, other things at the wonders the guys at Playboy could do with an airbrush! Just sayin'

Nope. Spent the day on Tawakoni. I'll get to work tomorrow. I just need to put the 3D eyes on and top coat everything. Still a good 8-9 hours of work there with the amount of stuff I have to work on.

Also need to rig the tail spinners but that goes pretty quick.

O-M-G. It's time for you to choose. Fishing or impressing us. You make up your mind young man.

Just got in from the garage. Finished painting, got eyes and decals on. Everything has been top coated and it's drying as we speak.

Here's a teaser pics.



Over 100 slabs hanging there. Still have to do the tail spinners tomorrow.

Finally got them all rigged and such.




The compartments where you see both white and chartreuse is because they are white on one side and chartreuse on the other.

If I didn't already have 4 boxes full of slabs, I'd buy that box of them off you. Looks good!

Those are about the best looking slabs I have ever seen.
I was very impressed with my purple/silver 'Kansas" slabs a few years ago but those may take #1

Really like those silver ones on the far right, what kind of mold is that and what size? Great work sir!

Great job Streetwalker! I'd hate to throw those in a lake around here.

Great finish work. Those are all good fish catching profiles and weights as well.

Do-It Shad spoon. 3/4 - 1 - 1.5 ounces.

There was over 100 slabs in the box. There's less than that now. There's a lot of hand work in each one of those little jewels. If I was to sell them they'd be $3 slabs.

thank you sir, I make my own, I was just curious about which mold it is because I really like the shape and style, thanks for answering. Incredible work.
