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.

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???
