Don't be so quick to toss a damaged cape (before & after pic's)
« on: April 15, 2009, 08:53:04 PM »
The 1st picture shows the damage done by a bullet and poor skinning.

The 2nd and 3rd pictures show what can be done to cover up the damage.

It's cheaper than a new cape and you end up with a one of a kind mount.

So don't be so quick to toss your cape. Talk to your taxidermist for different options. You might be suprised.

Been their done that and got the T-Shirt.  :tup: Nice work Elkstuffer!  Sometimes repairs like that actually make the mount more ejoyable because it is a change in the every day shoulder mount.

I didn't say it was your fault, I said I was blaming you.
If I ageed with you, then we'd both be wrong.
