He's still blind as you can see. I could'nt bring myself to fool with him anymore...........................Kevin

The stripes will come later. I have to let this guy dry for a few days first. The primaries are a bit washed out in the pic. Thanks for the tips George. I will give this guy a few washes of raw umber until I'm happy.................................Kevin

All good stuff here! A winker, nice! A painted, closed eye, nice decoy Zach! Geoff, I remember that decoy, SWEET!!! Very classy without the eye! I am a blending fool! I can't believe that I never knew how to do it before. If I knew that I could get my lines as clean and straight as yours...

Way cool Tom! I use a Rockwell Jawhorse for portable carving.....................Kevin

I'll probably leave him eyeless. Although Bill's idea of one eye is tempting........................You guys are nuts!!!...................Thanks, Kevin

I finished this guy up today. There is a lot of color blending on the back and tail that did'nt show up in the pics. This was a pain in the neck to paint but I'm happy with the outcome. Next will be a mate for this guy............................Kevin [inline IMG_1460.JPG] [inline...

Nice bench shot Brandon! I could frame that one.........................Kevin

"The smell of original Captain Black coming from a seasoned pipe is something to behold" That odor really brings back the memories.

Really nice stuff Tom. Here is a woodie with a few thin coats of primer. The last one I did in this head position was a "you know what" to paint under the chin and neck. Any tips on how to get this done?

Great decoys Mike!!! I love the subtle blending............................The bobtail buff is my favorite.................Kevin

Nice Pat!!! That merg is SWEET!!!

Thanks for the compliments everyone! Charlie, You'll do just fine. Try and pick a general style and emulate that. You know that Jodie Hllman got me started last year. I need to make time for another visit for more pointers. I also speak on the regular with Lenny Maiorano of Rutherford. He...

Hey Tom do you mean a flat spot or flat paint? Which pic? I may have missed something..................Kevin

Thank's Dave......... Gene, I too am overly critical. Especially for gunners. I'm sure that I will enjoy seeing them on the water but I have to say that I have not yet made and painted a decoy that I am really happy with yet. There just seems to be too many greats out there and I can't help...

Great job A.J.! This is fun right???...........................Kevin

Thanks everyone! Johnathan, I like a nice clean looking decoy but never feel that mine have that look. I'm glad that someone thinks so. Tim, I really like the tacks as well. I believe that I will be using them a lot more................................Kevin

Wow Geoff! Very clean!!!

This was my first attempt at this head position. Hollow cedar, oils and tack eyes..............................Kevin
