actually i think we may have it down pat. we started on it last night. completely skinned out the duck and scraped it as best as we could. soaked them in acetone for a little and let them air dry for a while. we have some old cheap teal plastic decoys and we're basically going to cut the head off the decoy, glue the duck's body over the teal decoy, and mount the head resting on top. after just draping the skin over the teal decoy, it looks like this idea can have a lot of potential. also, even if they work amazingly but only last for a season, all you'd have to do is scrape the previous duck off the plastic decoy, then repeat with another duck. plus these plastic decoys were real cheap. we're currently using some real nice looking widgeons, gadwall, a teal, and an awesome lookin spoony for this plan. i'll post pictures of the outcome when we're done within a couple days
