Default Messing around with dubbing brushes...

I have been messing about with these dubbing brushes which are so easy to use and you get a great effect on the body of your flies as they are quite rough and the fibers can be brushed out. The possibilities with this stuff is limitless and you get a huge range of colours. Here are a few of the recent patterns I have knocked up.

Looks like you've really "got the hang" of those, they'll all probably kill on sight. Cracking pics as well.
