I love the natural poses on bears and cats, especially when the eyes are done right. The scary :yike: claws and teeth thing is WAY overdone and the results usually are sub-par... :twocents:

Post by: Crowns on July 05, 2009, 12:13:04 PM: Yeah I like half mounts in more natural poses also. Maybe someday Ill shoot a Boar that was trying to kill some cubs, then I might get him snarling or looking aggressive. Got to go open mouth on rugs though, its tradition. Whats a trophy room w/o bear on the floor with a great big gaping mouth full of teeth.
