Lifesize bobcats (Charlies Taxidermy)
« on: July 05, 2011, 06:55:34 PM »
Here is a babcat scene I put together for a customer , I was a bit (like alot) behind schedule on this mount as I was stumped on mounting that sitting down bobcat . I had never done a sitting cat and told myself I would never do one but this customer talked me into doing one. I had it out of the freezer like 6 times trying to figure out how to get this thing sewn together. Since I was slowly pulling all my hair out , I decided I didnt want to look like  Blkbearklr (Bald) so I contacted one of the best Bobcat Taxi's I know on the eastern part of the united states and he gave me a few pointers that I needed, and as simple as they were the mount came together. ANyway, enjoy the pics. The rocks are all hand made and painted by me. These are Oregon Bobcats.
 
The pissed off kitty had a scar acrossed his right side of the nose, thats the dark line that crosses the nostril wing , looked like it got tore open at one time probably from a cat fight Id assume. 
If these pictures dont look to good I will take some better ones.

Great looking Cats, Charlie.
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.
You are never to old to learn something stupid.
