Title: Rocky Mountain Elk 'Wall Pedestal' Bull (BlackRiver Taxidermy)
Post by: BlackRiverTaxidermy on November 19, 2018, 04:00:38 AM

Guy got this bull years ago circumstances what they were, was not able to save the cape. After years as a euro he decided to shoulder mount the bull. His original bull had a 'real white cape', so after finding a cape of appropriate coloration and size he also made the request for a 'wall pedestal' form, which is not typically sold. After some pretty serious modifications and alterations including head position I created a wall pedestal form. The challenge is wall clearance for the headgear. Thought I would post the outcome..Enjoy- Joel/BRT.
