In this third of three videos created for the Minnesota Decoy & Wildfowl Carving Club, Laurie adds dot texture to the breast of the Flicker decoy using various size handmade brass channel punches. The decoy is sealed with polyurethane and primed with gesso in preparation for hand painting using DecoArt Traditions acrylic paint. The finished decoy is then antiqued using oil based stain to add a patina finish. Finally a custom leather tab is fashioned and attached for the decoy to hang from a tree or anywhere else.
