Make Your Duck Decoys Come to Life

Carving duck decoys has become a popular craft amongst today's hobbiests. But as important as good carving practices is the ability to give your decoys a life-like finish. This guide by expert illustrator and carver Anthony Hillman presents 13 species in 24 detailed color plates, along with complete advice on selecting paints and brushes, creating a color palette, and step-by-step instructions on how to proceed.

The 24 color plates show profiles and top views of the following species:

Mallard
Common Pintail
Wood Duck
Northern Shoveler
American Wigeon
Blue-winged Teal
Green-winged Teal
Black Duck
Canvasback
Redhead
Greater Scaup

Use Painting Duck Decoys to get expert advice on how to mix colors, prime and seal the wood, and which brushes to use to paint specific parts of the decoy-back, breast, tertials, speculum, primary wing feathers, tail, head, and flanks for both male and female. A list of colors needed for each plate is also included. You really can't do better than having Hillman's experienced advice by your side.
