New home made gear

[Muthagoose]

Thanks much for the kind words.. Tyler I will be coming to ND this fall just waiting for the mallards to pile up and its ON..

Ive already started to resculpt new heads and have new ideas for full bodys.Ill try and get a little video of them in a windy field. Might be best to do this along crop field shoreline in ND???? I hear the water reflects differently there and it would be the ultimate test.

Nice work! How much do you charge for your decoys?

I'm wondering the same thing, afraid to ask - they certainly don't look cheap

[Muthagoose]

I down sized the buffs this year to a litte mag size from the jumbos from last year..

Once again lighting is bad and the mettalic greens,blues and purples didnt show ARG!

Ill try and get these out on water next week for better pics...

[TonkaBass]

INSANE! You sir have a real gift! Those would be put on display about the fireplace if I ever got one Keep it up!

[Muthagoose]

Well this is my first attempt at redheads.. Got a work on the hens a bit more but the should fool the dumb ones..

The feather highlites went POW in the light..

Got a few more to do then onto the Hoodies and woodies..

[Gordie]

You fooled me Great work and now I have to wipe the drool off the keyboard.

[Muthagoose]

Didnt mean you guys,

I still have a ways to go. Just finding out what species to continue with like the mallard and ringers for in stock...

[Muthagoose]

Well they might not be the best eating,LOL, but they do work as a confidence decoys on ringers ect..

They sell pretty good for mantle blocks at Christmas which is why I make few now and then...

I will get the hens foot painted soon.Go figure...

Hope'n to get to painting the wooducks next week.

[BoxMN]

That hen in the second picture looks like she is ALIVE! Nice work, once again!

[Muthagoose]

Finally getting to paint the wooducks today..

Thinking of doing/adding one or 2 speicies to my list this winter.. Thinking of pintail,wigeon,gadwall,Blue or Greenwing teal.Was kinda considering Spoonies but I dont see them to much and am wondering if they would be worth the time to scuplt heads for.....

What do you guys suggest I try next???

[booger]

mostly because I want to see how they turn out - pintail and blue wing teal

[TylerS]

Pinnies and wigeons, simply for the fact they have so much white on them, and they're darn common ducks. Love having a few of those in a slough spread.

[Finlander]

Muthagoose, try making a spoonbill with white false teeth! That would be a hoot!

[crawler harness]

Mutha,

Your killing me, when do we get to see pics of the woodies!!

[Muthagoose]

This is my first attempt at..Ofcourse my photog abilities are less than desirable..Gonna see about getting a few on the water shots soon with some of this seasons work..Huge Thanks to my buddy Don for all his help.

Well let me know whatch think...

[crawler harness]

Thanks Mutha for getting me my fix this morning. Yeah some water shots would be good.

[Finlander]

Awsome detail work! Best I ever seen! Ever enter any decoy carving contests?

[dan z]

Are they fully flocked? Your paint schemes look spot on. Thanks for the updated photos

[Muthagoose]

Yep double flocked Thanks for the kind words....

[TylerS]

Spot freaking on, dude. Nice work as always!

[Greybeard53]

Ok, that's some great taxidermy work, but where's the photo of your decoys?

Oh wait....those ARE the decoys!!

Awesome job Steve.

[Muthagoose]

Well it hit 100,000 hits..Should I keep this going or have ya seen enough?

Ive yet to post my kayak with a dog blind,a roosting black ducks and floats on it.Gonna have to wait till I get it in use for those pics the end of the month..

Thinking as fast as the woodies went and all the mallards are gone that those will be my inventory birds for next fall Looking at adding wigeon and of all things loons..

[Surface Tension]

"Well it hit 100,000 hits..Should I keep this going or have ya seen enough?"

I think I speak for everyone, Lets Make A Million.

Yes keep it going.

[KidMoe]

Absolutely +1

[Gordie]

Mutha I for one will never get sick of the waterfowl eye candy you post.

I would be disappointed if you didnt post anything

Keep it going.

I hope to meet up with you this season sometime.
