Thank you Carl!

Man I drug my feet on these but my 9th and 10th birds are "officially" finished and ready to hunt. They'll sit here awhile till I carve/paint the next ones better.

 

[Brad Bortner]

Lloyd

That brant will hunt. Nice attitude.

 

[Carl R Guay]

Wow ninth and tenth those look Great!!

 

[Steve Sanford]

Good morning, Lloyd~

Great birds! I can feel that Brant swimming into the falling tide.

All the best,

SJS

 

[Lloyd Heins]

Thank you for the kind word guys. Steven, I hunt the beach for Brant in Humboldt Bay. I'll rig her so she's facing the beach coming in to grit. Can't wait for Nov.

Working on this little delaware river style buffie...might start carving wings into alot more birds in the future

 

[sean sutton]

Nice little English there Colin !

 

[jode hillman]

Great shape....nice Buffy!

 

[Andrew Menz]

A couple GWT I am glad to have finished for a couple friends. I'll probably put a wash on them but otherwise they're done. Also, what's the consensus? Tack eyes or no eyes at all?

 

[Carl]

WOW. If those are only your 9th & 10th birds, you truly have "the gift"!!!
Cant wait to see more.

 

[Carl]

Very nice.
I vote for eyes.

 

[Pat Gregory]

Andrew - By the time the ducks figure out they don't have eyes, you should be shooting. What's the point? Just my 2 cents...

Nice work! pg

 

[Andrew Menz]

I don't know Pat....I think every bird I have from you has eyes;-)

These 5 teal didn't seem to care if my teal decoys had eyes or not... )

[Andrew Menz]

LOL I really like that last one Pat. I'm a sucker for popping the grain. When are you going to get busy and paint those teal in the background? I see some eyes on those;-)

 

[Pat Gregory]

Carving 20 of them. Have 7 more to carve before paint. On deck, a dozen scaup, then redheads, then cans. 50 total before season. Some mallards and blacks in there even a spoony... Some with eyes, some without...

 

[Brandon Yuchasz]

That was a fun little exchange. Made me laugh. Andrew I vote for tacks.
