Plaque Mount Alternative
« on: April 28, 2012, 06:47:37 PM »
This is something I've been wanting to try for awhile.  This design is part of a story I've been working on.  The short is..."where ever elk goes, raven will follow" (as symbolized by the ravens in the elk track).  The cedar tree with the elk rub is a part of the story as well.  The plaque is yellow cedar.

Not really taxidermy, but thought I'd share.

Thanks for sharing Coastal!  :tup: I love the combo of PNW Indian painting and the skull plate. Also like the way you combine the 2 images... I hope you do more!

Very nice Costal. Is there some traditional significance to the painting?

That's one of the neatest things I have seen in a long long time. 

I have often asked raven to show me the elk, in exchange, I will make him a gut pile.  I bet one could train a raven to do this.  They are extremely intelligent.
