Title: What's wrong with Wiley?
Post by: deereman on December 27, 2013, 07:11:49 PM: Tried to make a decoy, got a free form at a coyote derby from some hunters who had this as there mascot on the back of their rig. I pulled old fur off, fixed a couple broken legs, and patched quite a few shotgun pellet holes. There is one BIG flaw. Can you spot it. Pick it apart, I have tough skin and didn't put much effort into the project.

BTW BIG flaw on that pheasant right under the yote. Body is way too flat to be realistic. Pose needs some work also ;)

Have fun with this one.
That's my roadkill pheasant, the asphalt tan worked well!!

Well I hope you film it. That would be funny! Maybe get a recording that yells out "you missed...try again" :chuckle:
