New Mexico Elk pedestal done (Charlies Taxidermy)
« on: December 29, 2012, 01:26:00 PM »
Just got this pedestal mount all wrapped up rescently and got some descent pictures in between rain showers. This is a new mexico bull that I had to recolor the antlers on as it was stained by , well, someone that didnt have a clue . Anyway got the antlers looking much much better with a little elbow grease and time. The dirt is actual dirt from new mexico also. ANyway, enjoy the pics!!

Damn fine work Charlie. That is really nice. The only way that could be better is if I was the one who shot it.  :chuckle:
