KUDUBULLLifesize Steinbok Forms
I am looking for a really nice form for a gold medal class steinbok that shows a little action. I dont want to usual standing or lying down. Any suggestions?
Thanks!

J P BakerThey only come in two or three poses, standing left or right,no action. If you want action your taxidermist will have to alter to the pose and size you need.
here is one that I altered.

KUDUBULLI saw the ones from research and the jumping one is the best I have seen so far. Thanks.
I am sure he is going to modify some way. The good thing is that one of the research sculptors also works out of his studio so he has some nice ideas.

Widowmaker416Why not use a real Taxidermist and have him design something.

KUDUBULLI consider my taxidermists very "real". Actually I consider him more of an artist than a taxidermists. I think the natiional awards that cover the wall behind his counter top speak for themselves.

J P BakerOK, I'll ask.
Who is your taxidermist and who is the sculptor that works in his shop?

L. David KeithCongrats on your 5.75" Steenbok. He should make the top 50 or better, maybe as high as the top 40 list.
