SullyTM 0 Report post Posted June 28, 2006 Andreas...The top view really makes the fly stand out. What materials did you use? Always nice to see something new. Later. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Andreas 0 Report post Posted June 28, 2006 raffia/marker-pens for the finish, hackle stems for the legs (partially wound with thread for enhanced shape), scotch tape technique for the wings (first try, with the wrong tape by the way). Mono-eyes. Quite thick mono as the underbody in the extended part. Like the way it turned out. Looking forward to the next one, with perfect wings, enhanced colouring, and a better tapered abdomen thanx for kind words you guys! Appreciate it, really Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
