			I picked up a bunch of old topwater baits at a local yard sale.  I sanded one down and painted it with my airbrush and this was the result.  After replacing the hooks and buying the bait I have about 60 cents in the project.  Let me know what you think. Old to new pics.

			I airbrush remote control car bodies on the side and I used some of the paint I use for that.  One brand is createx and the other is faskolor.  Hobby lobby carries the createx and any hobbyshop carries faskolor.  I had some clear in a spray can laying around.  Make sure you let the paint sit over night before clearing it.
