wntd pics of e allen brant decoys

[chester sadowski]

Hey guys,
I know it's a little early but i was wondering if anyone any pics of their e allen brant decoys. I picked up a few and was just trying to get some ideas on how i was going to paint them. I have painted some other decoys as brant before, but want to stay consistent with the lines on the e allen's. All help would be greatly appreciated. Trying to move onto the next project "gadwalls".

I honestly can't believe that out of 400 some odd views i haven't gotten even one response. Has something drastically happened to this forum where people don't want to respond or help anymore? It's really sad.

Or the folks reading don't have E Allen brant decoys? Did you look at Lou's site?

I have a couple I painted up, but i don't know that i would be really helping you out if i posted pictures of them.

Kind of an odd question, I always thought painting EAllens was easy because all the areas were delineated in the mold...but if this helps, I went stupid simple with mine (not E Allens if you couldn't figure it out):

Chuck,

Those are cool but do you see Brant in Michigan? I've never seen one on the Mississippi river.

I couldn't agree more... Clearly this forum has gone down the tubes when you ask about a flyway specific species, in a niche brand of decoy, and can't get help within 24 hours during the work week.

Maybe it's because you didn't mention whether you want pictures of Atlantic or Pacific brant...

Thanks guys! Yep i have checked lou's site, searched the internet, everything you can think of. Even pm'd lou about decoy prep on his older decoys. No reply. Just cant find an ass or back shot of a brant. Got them done except for the tail feathers. Just trying to be accurate. Thanks again for the pics and suggestions.

Chester,
Never got an email from you. Try sending it again.
There are pics of our Brant on the website also but if you give me your email address, I'll email some pics to you.
I can't figure out what's going on with this new computer but it won't post pics to the forum.
Lou

Lou
