Very nice work - I quite like the patterns you have posted thus far.
Would you mind posting the mallard feather details? Possibly a photo of the skin, showing the location where you plucked the feather. I too thought it was waterhen....

Welcome to the forum !

The feathers are the marginal coverts from the wing. I also use similar feathers from teal duck and wood pigeon too. Hope that is OK.

Your wing looks lighter, with grayish tint, much more so than any one I have. Now I have to look as soon as I go home :geek:
thank you

Soft and wet - the only way....
