Finished these guys today. They'll be in Montana this year. Slooooowly pecking away at what's left in the shop. I have to say, when I pulled these decoys out of the box I almost gagged. Had to be the ugliest paint job I have ever seen on any decoy. No idea what they were thinking.

Are you talking about the factory paint? I thought I was the only one not drinking the Dakota koolaid. Never have liked their paint jobs.

Affirmative. The factory paint had to be the worst I have ever seen on any decoy.

I know the paint they use is suppose to be tuff but damn can't they at least make it look real for that kind of money.
