I finally got a chance to get one of these painted up. I was able to cast 12 for this years rig before I ran out of materials.

PS still haven't finish scoter heads, trying to stick a deer before duck season.
 
Tom,

Really neat bird.

Question for you. What did you use for the texturing? That looks pretty course on the back and creates a NEAT effect. Texture paste? Impasto?

Thanks!

Best,
Steve
 
Steve, I used texturing paste applied with a sponge. Paint white over the top then dry brush the vermiculation in. I find it's much faster than combing.
 
Awesome Tom!

Where in the Rochester area you? Come by and stop in on a LPWA meeting sometime at our clubhouse on Island Cottage Rd. between Buck and Round Pounds. We meet on the 3rd Tuesday of every month @ 7:30PM.
