Title: Lifesize Wolf mount Done ( Charlies Taxidermy)
Post by: bucklucky on June 07, 2011, 11:05:48 PM: Well thought you guys would like to see some pictures of that lifesize wolf I had posted pictures of before it was done. Remember this is the first wolf I have had an opportunity to mount . I just got the habitat and rockwork done so here it is. I really enjoyed doing this mount and the best part is all the wolf discusion going around the forum :chuckle: Anyway, I hope to get more of these to do this next year :tup:

Post by: NWBREW on June 07, 2011, 11:25:55 PM: Damn Charlie......that's nice. Real nice. Everytime you post one of your mounts it makes me want to go hunting and bring you something to mount.
It's not just a nice mount.....it's amazing work. I need a wolf tag.

Post by: BLUEBULLS on June 30, 2011, 06:26:50 PM: Dang Charlie, you always impress me.

you need to kill a big bull in big hole or something so I can pack it out for you and you can owe me a mount :chuckle:

Just kidding, I'll be glad to pay you when the time comes :)

Excellent job. He just looks to happy for me. :twocents:

That's because he lives in Washington now, and he knows that he will never have to worry about getting shot (again)... :chuckle:
Great job Charlie :tup:
Title: Re: Lifesize Wolf mount Done ( Charlies Taxidermy)
Post by: bucklucky on July 01, 2011, 09:03:39 AM: Actually I know what he is refering too and I did have another person point out that he was smiling so I went to the referance and that is how the lipline on a wolf is, so that smiling look is correct by nature.

Title: Re: Lifesize Wolf mount Done ( Charlies Taxidermy)
Post by: huntiholic on July 02, 2011, 11:29:50 PM: over all i think you did very well.. im sure you learned a few things along the way... predators are always harder to mount... the biggest thing that sticks out to me are the ears... i believe they need to be pulled up higher on his head... if you look at the gap between the ears on your wolf and the one in the picture you see the difference.. and i tried to pick a picture of a somewhat relaxed alret pose for a reference pic... but overall awesome job :tup:
Title: Re: Lifesize Wolf mount Done ( Charlies Taxidermy)
Post by: bucklucky on July 03, 2011, 05:49:11 PM: I 100% agree with the ear position . Under the circumstances though , I thought I had posted earlier but the hide was completely "dead" up around the neck and head , It was real hard to even get the hide Taxi'ed to where I needed it to go. I actually had to pull the hide, pin it in place , and then let go . It was real tough getting things in place. The hide in between the ears had no give , when I tried to move them closer together but the hide would just bunch up real bad, its kind of hard to explain. I really did not like the tan at all. Would have been great for a soft skin, but as a mountable tan it was about the worst I had used. It was tanned in Canada.

Post by: huntiholic on July 04, 2011, 11:33:49 PM: in that case man you did an amazing job!.. i completely understand the "dead" hide problems... cant wait to see what you can do with the next wolf!!

Title: Re: Lifesize Wolf mount Done ( Charlies Taxidermy)
Post by: Hunter Dug on July 09, 2011, 11:42:48 PM: I see the smile now very nice, and very correct, nice job. I just see them in my eyes as mean and nasty animals.

Post by: 400out on July 13, 2011, 07:45:50 PM: Looks just fine to me! If someone wants to compare then tell them to go sneak up on a sleeping one and measure it :chuckle:
