Half Mount Black Bear (Charlies Taxidermy)
« on: May 02, 2013, 08:33:47 PM »
Hey guys, here is a half mount bear I just finished up today . That thing was a dandy bear , if I remember right it was 20 on the skull or close to it dry. I much rather do something like this than a rug , but thats just me . At least it looks "half" way natural  :chuckle: Enjoy the pics .

Way better than a rug, especially with the chest V.  Nice job.
Pain is temporary, achieving the goal is worth it.

I didn't say it would be easy, I said it would be worth it.

Great mount.  Looks like it was starting to show some cinnamon on it's sides...
