    Here is a few pics of my drakes. The gf painted the heads and I did the bodies. Sure not up to expert standards but I think they will work for me. I still have some work left to do on alot of them but here they are.

    If you link out to photos on photobucket be sure that they are no wider than 450 pixels or you will stretch the page here on the site.

    Using the photo upload system here on the site is FAR easier and quicker than using photobucket or other photo hosting sites once you get the file sizing figured out. The other nice thing about uploading photos to the IDA server is that they’ll always be part of the post you added them to. If you browse old threads you’ll find nearly all photos added using a hosting site are missing… so the posts that are loaded with all those red “X’s” indicating a missing file.

    You will get great satisfaction when the first flock cups on your blocks.

    They are herters decoys. They were just old model 63’s when i started with them. Then I burlapped them and painted them. Actually if you look down further on the waterfowl page here i have pics of them just burlapped as well.
