Fishwhittler Posted July 30, 2011 Posted July 30, 2011 This is a small (3 1/2", 3/8 ounce) floatering swimmer that dives 0-1'. For the color, I tried to do something along the lines of Aurora Black, and I think it turned out well. A few more cranks in some new colors (for me): Blue Glitter Black Another new bluegill pattern. It seems like all of the bluegill patterns I've tried before had something wrong with them: they were too dark, or not yellow enough, or something that just made them look not quite right. For this one, I took a much different approach while I was painting it, and the result was finally what I was looking for. Silver Shad with crackle back. I used Elmer's Glue as my crackle medium. This shot shows the crackle on the back better: Let me know what you think! Ben Quote
Super User clayton86 Posted July 30, 2011 Super User Posted July 30, 2011 Nice I like that black color reminds me of my old camaro Quote
Steven Ladner Posted July 31, 2011 Posted July 31, 2011 Very professional work, the Aurora Black is awesome. Quote
Stringjam Posted July 31, 2011 Posted July 31, 2011 Those look fantastic. Black is one of the most underrated crank colors - it's always cool to see somebody doing unique things with it! Quote
Big Bass Man Posted July 31, 2011 Posted July 31, 2011 Nice work Ben, I agree black is underrated!! Quote
