Title: Don't be so quick to toss a damaged cape (before & after pic's)
Post by: Elkstuffer on April 15, 2009, 08:53:04 PM: The 1st picture shows the damage done by a bullet and poor skinning.

The 2nd and 3rd pictures show what can be done to cover up the damage.

It's cheaper than a new cape and you end up with a one of a kind mount.

So don't be so quick to toss your cape. Talk to your taxidermist for different options. You might be suprised.
