Default Changed up my Euro mounts.

I had some to kill while working in the shop today and I have been wanting to do this for a while. I had all of these on plaques around the room. I wanted to get them all in one spot, but didn't really know how I wanted to do it.

I have been helping a friend of mine tear down a 200 yr. old barn. He is wanting to use some of the wood for walls in his addition that he is getting ready to start. I have been keeping some odds and ends as we go along, so I decided to mount them all on a couple pcs. of the barn siding. I didn't want to stain the wood or do anything to it. I think it looks good with the weathering it has had over all of those years. I am happy with how it turned out, but now I have to take it all down, the wife is wanting to paint [:'(]. She loves the way they look but thinks that the room needs color. I agree but I'm not looking forward to taking everything off the walls.

I just thought I'd share and see what you guys thought.

Thanks guys. I started doing my own euro mounts a few years ago when I started getting impatient waiting for my taxidermist to get my shoulder mounts done.
