hey about the turkey tail your wife may get a little upset but get a small spary bottle fill it with water and but it on mist, spray the tail feathers and grab a straightner and start working every feather to the normal pose it was once at. dont work it so much that your burning the tail feathers. this is the way that i was taught to fix tail feathers on anything, my god mother taught me this and she gets payed at the san berdino museum mount birds. same for you boneaddict with that silver that you say you messed up on his tail may be a little ragged now but if you do that with the tail feathers they will look new cant help you with the waddles you already painted them
