I hold the airbrush up close and just freehand mine. Some use the back of a drill bit and dot them on![]()
When I paint my eyes, I use the back of a nail head. Just dip it in a spot of paint and touch the bait with it. If you want 2 color eyes, use 2 size nail heads. Pretty simple. You can also use this for the kill dot on baits.
