Default Mounts your getting done ?

Just figured since all the pictures of the mounts seem to have been wiped out or ?
We can start a new post .
So post a picture of a Buck , Doe , or something you harvested and will be or have got mounted .
A before and after picture would be cool.
Hunters , Taxidermists , etc, , even pictures of something in the works and not complete ?
I,ll try to start it off ..
Heres a picture of my 10 pointer I harvested in Nov, 2010 .
He is not mounted yet , I,m having him mounted on a McKenzie 6400 Head Up . I was told he should somewhere around April .
If all works out that would be a lot sooner than usual .
I do NOT push my Taxidermist for time .
Quality for me is #1 .
So lets get this going again , Thanks

Default Heres another

Here he is again , but not as wet .

Also I posted a picture of something I made up to put under the finished mount .
I actualy made 2 of them , One the fence goes on the right side and this one the fence is on the left .
I,ll try to post a better picture .
I made these out of some very old split rail fence posts .
They look like the old style slit rail fence .
I added some small tree limbs and some vines .
The other one is a little different .

Here are some pictures of my buck. had some on here before but they are gone.

This is when I first got it.


This is a picture of when I first mounted it about 20 years ago. looked like crap back then


And here are some after the remount, how it is now. A heck of alot better than 20 years ago.
