    Default First powder coat head


    Here is one of the 5 jigs I did this am just to see how they turn out. I have not finished my fluid bed yet. These are only dipped in the powder.
    Did this one in three colors head one tail one and then wrap red.
    These were taken without a flash. But still the Krystal flash still blurs

    FYI, I think your camera is too close and your light is too direct. That is what I get if I don't use my macro setting when close and if I have the light directly over the jigs.

    Paining jigs is addictive...ha Push the flower button on your camera before you snap a close up.

    The jigs look like they will catch fish. I agree with the comments from Skip. You want to try and get as nice a picture as you can of your jig. Rick Fountain has been helping me and I appreciate his efforts.
