I finished my fox mount today see what yea think

[LPJR]

That looks great!  

 

If I recall, I think you said in the past you were recently getting into taxidermy. Looks like you have been doing it for years.

 

Nice job!

[Rusty]

That's a cool mount!    

[Turkeyboy44]

looking good  . from what i was told, predators are tough to do. the taxidermist i use to use completely mangled my fox lol. the one you mounted looks better then the taxidermist i used who has had 20+ years doing it. 

 

wont mention his name, but one leg on my mount is literally a comma, like a (,) apparently my former taxidermist thinks fox dont have joints. and more holes in it then my fishing net. and waited 1 1/2 years for it lol.

$450. then i had another taxidermist charge me $100 to try to fix it the best he could. grand total $550 on a friggin fox mount. at least  my new taxidermist put fox eyes in for me. the one that i dont use anymore, put raccoon eyes in lol. the leg still looks like a nike symbol. i have given up on the fox. most likely be tossed into my attic to collect dust and maybe do my research on taxidermists for my next fox mount.
