Chris and Gavin good job and to Eric to make them micro lures, to small I don't think I`d even try, the one that I`ve got of Eric`s is about as big as my thumb nail

They look awesome Gavin and Chris Clap

I had the pleasure of catching up with Eric again at Carl's place today - he literally popped out of nowhere and poked me in the ribs, I swear the guy is some kind of magician! Shocked 

Eric mentioned he loves the lures you guys have done - it's great to see what happens when talented artists collaborate Artistic

With Carl's help I managed to get a photo with Eric before he vanished again Tongue






Cheers, Tony

For the love of Fishing Lures.

I didn't say that I wouldn't paint them, the challenge would be to get 6 or7 colors on them, Chris it looks like you got 5/6 on the yabbie

Eric sent me some more down to play with,i dunno apart from a custom one that i'll do for Gristy the rest will be done as nudies ,I think the smallest ones are even smaller than the last tinies (how are you going with yours btw Gavin?).
The earrings are pretty cool too thanks for these Eric and Carl

Mine are undercoated Chris but beside being busy at work will all the storms, its been that hot here I haven't wanted to play in the shed so not much further along.
They are great little lures but the smaller they get, the bigger the challenge!
Cheers,

Gavin

She who must be obeyed suggested PINK! So pink it is and I took a bit of inspiration from Nicko, added some DOTS! These are the smallest I have worked with at 10mm body length, yep that is a 5 cent piece they are sitting on!  Eric, don't go any smaller, these were hard enough to handle.
 
So now Robyn has a nice little selection of Eric's lures. The top 2 on the left are Ward/OCD Hybrids, below is a Ward/Fugly Hybrid & the 2 on the right are Eric originals. Robyn says a big thanks to Eric and to Mr Fugly for here special little lures.
Cheers,

Gavin

Amazingly small and amazing paint Gav--Eric's older than I am, don't know how he sees to carve them, beautiful work--I'm thinking the big bream down here would love these.
