Very nice hooks. Is that freeze dried or artificial head? My usual question as I find that is the part on any mount which makes or breaks it. It just seems that even with a real head the painting job is too specific sometimes. What I mean is blue areas are straight blue, red is red, etc. and more on the bright color side most of the time. A real bird has texture and tone, variations in the colour, the small hairs.

It's hard to see from your pic. Looks like it might be a nice job on the head particularily the detail on the back of the neck part.

Be nice to see more pics of heads up close. I have one being done and this was my biggest direction with the taxidermist I chose. His previous work on freeze dried was nice but I always like to see more to compare.

Great work dd.
