One of the biggest challenges with patterns like Bluegill is that there’s basically an endless number of bluegill variations. No two fish really look the same.
Some are super dark, some are really light and the color mixes can go anywhere from purples to greens to browns.
That’s what makes it tricky as a luremaker you have to pick one or two directions out of all those possibilities and commit to it.
This is my take on a bluegill.
I build the color on a light, golden base and then layer it with a few different shades of green
