I just spent a few minutes looking those over. Iniotially I thought they were a bit busy but I really started warming up to them. I like the Africa-shaped pedestal base.

Nice work.

To me they are too busy, I don't follow the current trend in taxidermy of huge elaborate pedistal mounts. In my mind they detract from the animal.

To each their own I guess.

As opposed to your normal shoulder mount that is normally hung 10-12 feet on the wall, never to be touched or seen eye to eye again.

I think those pedestals look great. I also think they would work really well with guys who hunt exotic animals in Texas. You could put all the common exotics on the same pedestals. Keep the pictures coming

I agree... those are very nice and would be good for someone running out of wall space.

Absolutely stunning.

I really enjoy your pictures,keep 'em coming.

Over 40 years ago I took a correspondence taxidermy course---Northwestern School of Taxidermy.

I was a kid at the time and the tweety bird population in my neighborhood really took a hit providing me with practice specimens.

I worked mosty with birds but did a few game heads.

None of my game head mounts ever came even close to what is being produced now days.
You guys are real artists.

Sidnye, Big Grin
I bought my lessons from J C Elwood and the Northwestern School of Taxidermy 43 years ago.
Getting those lesson books was like having Xmas come in the mail. I lived in the city 1 mile outside Detroit and with my BB gun the bird population almost went extinct....I didn't enjoy mounting birds so turned my specialty to Mammals...

I still have my booklets from back then.

We must have been in the same graduating class


Got'em at the same place. one dollar a month for 10 months I think.

Still have the paperback books--Still have that little kit with chain and hooks for hanging birds and scalple etc from JW elwood supply

Still have the diploma---

I have several college degrees/awards but that taxi diploma looks the best

It was impressive to a 10 year old...

"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."
