Some Fresh mounts

[Art of Taxidermy]

Hi All,
Hope you are all staying cool in these hot days. Here are a bunch of fresh mounts, some are already picked up, some still waiting.
For your viewing pleasure.
Regards
Ben.



Here is a double Mule Ped mount, rotating on pivot, for a great memory of a Father and son who are also AO members... incredible family.










and here is a fairly large Tom. its head was about 15% larger than the biggest I could find , so I had to enlarge it again. lots of scars on its body, looked like he's had a tough life.












And a 46 inch Replica Pike...






Here are a bunch of super cute Pine Martens..

and after all a single hawk left over from previous batch.

adult female Swainson's Hawk.



Hope you enjoyed.... Next will be a bunch of Birds.
cheers.

You have some serious talent!

Really like that pike! You say it is a replica- did you carve it?

Thanks ...
No I didn't carve the fish, Replicas are moulded off of a real fish, there are a few different companies that produce pretty much any kind of fish we can think of, they come in parts and blank... all we have to do is put them together, and air brush.

I'd be worried, having a live cat look at me, like that.
