Fallow BuckWartie Tusk Mounts
Hi All,
I Went a bit postal on the warties this year and ended up with 6 sets of tusks. What I decided in the end was to just get the 6 Sets of tusks mounted on a sheild with a peice of brass between them each.
I've seen this done with a single set of European Boar tusks but not with Warthogs. Has anyone done anything similar that could post a picture?

BlankI originally thought about doing a placque or shield, but settled for a nicely done shadow box.

jbderunzHere is a plaque Michel Vaillier, taxidermist, makes for me.
The smaller the tusks, the cheapest the plaque.
Bet I saved much money.

Fallow BuckThanks Guys.
I got the confo this morning from Safari Taxidermy. Those little fellas keep costing me money!!!
JB,
That looks like a very symetrical set of tusks. I think mine will be a little more scrappy than that.
Blank,
They must have been a couple of nice old boars.
Best regards,
