Lure Painting | Too realistic?

Shad are the food of choice at the lakes I fish. I've been taking my casting net out with me to catch some fresh shad to put out on a dropshot. But when I want some more active fishing, I like a custom lure that looks like the very shad the bass are eating. This design is very simple but very effective.
