Sharpen your carving skills, learn new painting techniques

Dear Wildfowl Carver,

Raise your hand if you’ve carved a wood duck drake. Fair enough; the wood duck drake is a popular subject, and often the feature of a wildfowl carving class. The wood duck makes for a great anatomy lesson and gives carvers great practice in both carving and painting.

If you’ve already carved and painted your own wood duck drake, now it’s time to carve a wood duck hen. In the Summer issue of Wildfowl Carving, we share a project that was originally a book club exclusive: a detailed Miniature Wood Duck Hen demonstration by carver Jean Minaudier.

Even better: From planning to carving to painting, all the instructions you need to create your own beautiful Miniature Wood Duck Hen are included in this issue. No waiting for the next issue to come out to move on to the next phase of the project. You have everything you need right here, so you can proceed at your own pace..

Download your pattern, print it out, & use it to prepare your bird to carve!

The Miniature Wood Duck Hen is a wonderful way to practice and refine your carving and acrylic painting techniques. You’ll be amazed at how much detail goes into the carving of this bird, and you’ll really appreciate the contrast between the hen’s soft gray head and her iridescent secondaries and wing coverts when you get to painting.

Minaudier pays exquisite attention to detail in this Miniature Wood Duck Hen project. And the close-up photos of each step give you excellent reference points for your own carving and painting.

The Miniature Wood Duck Hen  is a great project for carvers looking for something on a smaller scale but still packed with plenty of detail. You’ll have the opportunity to put your own subtle touch on this project as you hone your carving and painting skills.

When you pick a project from Wildfowl Carving, you get a downloadable pattern to and print out to map out your carving!
