It's still not duck related but it's what has been coming out of my shop this month. A set of back to back beds and a ship's ladder. Starting to catch up a little with work. Maybe I'll be able to work on my boat or try hacking out something that resembles a duck one of these days.
Started the week finishing up bill details & setting eyes in all the heads I did to add to my pickleweed field-decoys. Yikes! ---- found that the cupboard was almost bare when it came to 10mm. brown eyes, so I had to call Willy for a "refill." (As usual, great 2 day service). Rough cut & sleeved the fronds for the necks today, and now I'm ready to dowel on the heads and do the final shaping on each stickup.
Tim, i figure that if i am going to make stuff for folks to gun over, i might as well make them all a wee bit different--Kinda disliked the soldiers, so when i started making dekes, i decided to NOT make cookie cutter stuff. Thanks.
Nice work everyone. George, love those mallards and especially like that redhead. Here are some geese I just finished painting. I think I like the plain sidepockets better and will probably repaint the sidepockets on the one.
