Once in a Blue Moon someone will come along with both the talent and vision to make a truly outstanding mount.  :tup:

That’s a true masterpiece...where do you put something like that?

Yes, it is a cool looking mount.  I wish I could see some closer pictures of it and check out the details.  I'm not saying it isn't done spectacularly, but I have seen many poses or mounts that look great from afar then you actually look at the work and it is not good.

last year down at the Utah sportsman expo show there were some mounts that really stood out, burnt logs/amazing settings with various animals.  It made a guy not want to mount anything typical again lol.
