Mark;; I like your set up;; great idea using clothspins.. I have; used masking tape; slit cut a few places; painted it; came out looking descent; for a first try. Im still learning buddy !! and ; yea;; it does take more time; more work; to make a popping bug;; but very well worth it!! I have several bugs; to try making this winter-- great past time for a winter project ! and thanks again;; for getting me into making them !!

Bruce, haven't made a tutorial yet but I have shared some details on the site, Carl I use an airbrush but, favorite effects come from using netting spraying through a comb etc. This is a high tech jig I use to hold the netting on the poppers as I spray
I am inspired by some of the catalogs featuring fishing lures lots of color schemes there. Also I try to have an eye for what I'm trying to imitate.
