Re: My trophies
Well done....I've never really seen euro mounts that have worked so well.

Excuse my ignorance but how'd you get the skulls so white and even in color

ErikT,

Great looking trophies! The Euro mounts look very classy.

I love the waterbuck. With those foward swept heavy horns they seem to standout in every trophy room.

Dave

Are those plastic skulls?

Thanks a lot for the compliments

All trophies are real skulls (no plastic ) - besides the buffalo I've had the taxidermy done in Africa - once by "Troph�endienste" in Windhoek and once by "Hunters Safaris / Taxidermy" in South Africa. The buffalo were done by a German taxidermist.

In real the skulls are not looking so bright and shiny - I think this real "pure white" look is probably due to my digital camera (all pictures were taken with flashlight...)

Best regards,

Hey,

The Cape buffalo trophy skulls even have "eyes". Are you telling me that they aren't made from plastic???
