Here is a little something I have been working on for the competition. It is looking really good. I need more work to the head and ears. I feel like it needs more lift on the head. Your thoughts?

He looks like he's in serious trouble :laf:
Rigor mortis has set in or he has a popcorn hull stuck on the rook of his mouth something :laf:

It'll work though, all they need to see is the outline. There's even PICTURE decoys available.

This is a tanned hide that I traded some shooting sticks for. I took an old yote skull and filled in his face. I used a pool float and deflated it and stuck it inside the cavity and blew it up. It is super light weight,

I worked a little more on the head and neck today. Added a different skull to give better shape to the head and face area. I am very pleased with the turnout. Now, Its time to give him a name and put it to work.

Yes, I have a few different scents, coyote urine, dazed dog, and something else out there I can't remember whatis called. i figure I will need to make it smell especially since I've been handling it.
