Do you want Taxidermists to continue posting pictures of their work? POLL

Doc

I am not a taxidermist, but I am rather picky on what I'll hang on my wall.

Personally, I wish all of you taxidermists would share even more.

I do see where Roof is coming from, however, where we can have "too much of a good thing."

Regardless, this is a taxidermist forum and whether any of you choose to call us peanuts or camp followers, it really doesn't matter to me.

I will say that I've been rather disappointed b/c I think there have been too few pics to look at.

George, I'd really like to see the following from you:

shoulder mount antelope, whitetail, mulie, and a black bear.

Is this something that can be arranged?

Doc, my work is just ordinary stuff you can find at anyone's shop. I've done them all along with animals from Russia, New Zealand, South America and all of North America. Still, it's "commercial grade" work that would only give rise to the "peanut gallery" for it's simplicity. There's a bit of my work on
<A HREF="http://www.taxidermynet/forums.com%5B/URL%5D" TARGET=_blank>www.taxidermynet/forums.com</A> and then here's a leopard that I mounted to interact with a lion that Ken Walker did in my shop a few weeks back. (http://www.taxidermy.net/forum/index.php/topic,33774.0.html

Here's a picture of my late great 17 year old buck Willow that I mounted in an aggressive pose.

"Peace is that brief glorious moment in history when everybody stands around reloading" - Thomas Jefferson

Every morning the Zebra wakes up knowing it must outrun the fastest Lion if it wants to stay alive. Every morning the Lion wakes up knowing it must outrun the slowest Zebra or it will starve. It makes no difference if you are a Zebra or a Lion; when the Sun comes up in Africa, you must wake up running......

"If you're being chased by a Lion, you don't have to be faster than the Lion, you just have to be faster than the person next to you."

JIM, Please. I'm neither "worldly" or "classy" and certainly NOT "world class". I'm just a regular commercial taxidermist. I don't compete outside my small state show, so I'm no challege to the truly gifted people out there.

This is the link to the leopard I did that matches up to the lioness. I HOPE it works.
