I could have fun hiding that in different places and scaring the hell out of my friends and family. Imagine walking into your garage, or shop or something and having that staring at you.  :chuckle:

Great looking mount for sure.  I've always wondered how them critters manage to keep their front claws so dang long with all the digging they do.
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.

That looks great.  I would love to have one someday (went to the University of Wisconsin Go Badgers).  My dad shot one in MT a few years ago but it wasn't salvageable (30.06=too much gun for bucky).

Nope the wife does not get credit for this one, all she did was set the nose. That is not enough work to get credit for. Thanks for the compliments on it though. Especially the base, I think I keep doing good on them I might have to start charging for them, but until I get enough confidence in my abilities I will continue to do them for free   ;)

I may start, really been playing with the water and snow scenes, but that stuff is expensive to play with at 97.00 a gallon.
