The Artistry of Wildlifeabout 30 hours into it. The tongues are generic from Joe Coombs but if you know the secret you can make them do anything you wish and it's easy.
Backstory: One deer was dead half eaten by coyotes. Young hunter came upon the one alive dragging what was left of the other and filled his tag in Oklahoma. They score 140 and 160 approx.

The Artistry of WildlifeThnanks Tim, here you see an example of the client saying here are the bucks, do it your way.
Some other hunters even on here have done this also and don't put restrictions on me as an artist and let my imagination loose. To many locked buck are done like shoulder mounts and passive because they hold the taxidermist to limits on pose , attitude and design. Rance's Dad said go with what you feel and do it your way.
