I finished up this half mount bear a month and a half ago. It was the customers first . Real pretty bear. I did not use a cast lip head on this bear. I sculpted out the lips and the nodules myself, no snap together mouth on this one. I thought it was a cool mount if you like open mouth pissed off bears that you never see in the woods  Enjoy the pics.

What do you mean? Every bear I've seen in the woods has looked like he was going to charge and rip my head off

I had a customer bring me a cub that was all of about 50 lbs and wanted the same pose. I told him to take it somewhere else. He changed his mind and we did it closed mouth.

Beautiful mount Charlie! people don't realize how tough it is to sculpt the mouths like that. Great work fella!

[Pathfinder101]

Go back and look at him again... now imagine you're a huckleberry...

NOW it looks real, huh..?

Charlie,

What else can I say.  Absolutely amazing work!

 

[Firing Pin]

Charlie, that is one bad azz mount. 

[quadrafire]

My ignorance here, but can you keep the skull and do a mount like that. Are the teeth "artificial" ?

That is truly and awsome mount,  but I was waiting for the milk to drip off his lips 

[bucklucky]

Yes you can keep the skull, the mouth has an artificial jaw set in it.

[Echomules]

That is a killer looking mouth on that bear. I like to look of that as apposed to the wide open showing of a giant pink tongue that is so common.
