Nice video!! Thanks

Thanks for the great info , very helpful ... Wing method is awesome .

Awsome! Wish I had seen this week's ago. Is there a clip for turkey wings?

Thanks loved it

Thanks for the great videos I have a question what do you think about using pan pastels to finish deer I'm looking for a different way of doing it I'm more old school I've been using Sally Danes just using oils and stippling and it's turning out pretty good but I just wanted to do something different get your take on it I seen you do turkey heads with both by the way they look great

since you do the leg and wing separate when mounting. do you cut the leg and wing of with the skin still on it before you skin the rest of the body.

Need a video showing how you skin your turkeys.

How did you get such a nice roll to the tail fan?

Does he rebuild the legs with clay or epoxie sculpt?

Are you attaching the wings before or after you apply the skin on the body?
