Excellent! Great to see a youngster developing talent. Sounds like he has a good mentor at hand too.
Stick to quality as opposed to quantity and sales may come his way
Keep it up and good luck,

Well we're Green and we're Gold, and we play better when it's cold. All us Cheese heads have our favorite superstar. We love Brett Favre.

Sealed, then base coated with a good heavy body black and textured surface with a sponge to get it an "eggshell" texture. Now putting some color on it ![[Linked Image from i.imgur.com]](https://i.imgur.com/t5kmDhV.png)

Jealous here. But it's always good to see when little kids have more talent and patience than I do.
I could wish a lot of things on my worst enemy but neuropathy ain't one of them.

Where do you find cork like that? Order it from a guy in Michigan, but it comes on a boat from Portugal from what I understand. It ain't cheap.

That's awesome. Your boy is doing a great job. I love to see the kids getting involved in anything hunting related. It looks like he's got some excellent coaching. Good job Dad.
Looking forward to seeing some more pic's

Nice work, very talented I can see him competing later on!!! Hunting over them would be like shooting something with your own reloads or hand made arrows. Later in life he can get BIG $$$ for his work as a hobby. Keep it up Dad, he's on his way. GWP. 🐾👣🇨🇦

Beautiful work on the decoy!

Wabigoon:
Several kinds of cedar in the USA. Might one be a bit more specific?
