Man I would love to have you demonstrate that effect! Great job!

I would have done it a little differently... Take a piece of thin celophane (A plastic baggy works too) and crinkle it up. Then touch it in the paint you want to put on the lure and lightly touch it to the lure. Then you can twist your hand if you want to give a different effect. The crinkled celphane will only touch the lure here and there giving you a nice splotched effect. The effect would be similar to the one on the left. I'm not sure how I would have gone about doing the striped ones unless I used a stippling effect with the airbrush. I've never tried that though. Hmmm
