Finished painting the cork body/wood head woodduck I carved last week. Not entirely satisfied with the blue on the back, so I think I'll alter it later. Wasn't looking for fancy, merely functional. My objectives in this project were as follows:
1) Carve a woodduck, and have it actually end up looking like a woodduck (that's always handy).
2) Give it a gunner type paint job that would be easy to reproduce when doing a run of multiple birds.
I'm hoping I at least met those two guidelines. Here's what I came up with as a first attempt.
