    Default Painting with Illusion paint and crinkle


    I wanted to come up with some new colors so ordered a few colors of the illusion paints and mixed some colors together and got two more. Blue and red for a nice purple and blue and chartreuse for a nice looking green. Using them together with the crinkle have been getting some nice colors. Using up to seven different colors on a 1/8 oz. jig now even though the most colors you actually see is less. Probably better off sticking with 4-5 colors. Too many colors and the crinkle doesn't move as much as I want it to. Here are some from yesterday.Name:  IMG_1966.JPG

    I think I have a magic oven, most of the jigs are coming out looking really nice. The football heads are 3/8 and when they came out of the oven " WOW" was the first word out of my mouth. I have a plastic shoe box filled with these painted heads and need to start another one, totally addicted to crinkle paint.

    Magic oven huh….. he he he

    I wondered if setting the temp low could get the flow, then turn up to crosslink.
    Maybe they will bite this one……
