Default A decoy I started

Working on a black duck for a friend. Hollow body, and that penny is going inside. It's amazing that since I quit power carving, the sinus infections have stopped!

Looks like you doing a really good job Treever. Will want to see the finished duck when you're done. I also carve quite a bit with knives but still do lot with power carving tools.

Treever... Excellent duck. I love the head and the way you carved the bill. It looks so life like!

Thank you, gents. It's being passed along from buddy to buddy and will end up "working" in all four of the flyways-from Maine to California, Minnesota to Louisiana, and will come to rest in Delaware. Pretty neat project.
