One big blackbear
« on: April 18, 2020, 06:14:17 PM »
Black bears seem to cause me the most trouble. They usually require a lot of form altering, a lot of sewing, and a good bath with lots of blow drying. But when they turn out looking this handsome, I'm reminded why I love this job.

That is an amazing mount and animal! Very nice work!  If you don’t mind posting it, what does a mount like that cost? I’ve got a WA spring bear tag( fingers crossed) and an Idaho bear tag this year

My lifesize bears start at $3k. Idaho does it right, you got the option to use bait or hounds, should be fun! Best of luck!

You did a fantastic job on this bear.  I really like the natural hang of the left arm.  Very life like and looks like it's paused in motion.  Hopefully that makes sense.

The Artest does awesome work, and this bear belongs to my friend, and it looks stunning in real life, last look does all my mounts. You owe it to yourself to give her a try. Awesome results

That's fabulous work. I don't think I've seen a better life size mount.

That's an exceptional mount and animal. Well done.
