2022 Safari taxidermy is getting done

[PARA45]

Looking at your hartebeest makes me think I want to wack me one next year!
They look great!

I hear ya. I’m glad I decided to take the back too.

 

[Mort Hill]

Dude! Just fabulous. Can’t wait to see them up.

Well, the moment I've been waiting for has finally arrived. @gizmo (Top of Texas Taxidermy) texted me yesterday to inform me that he was already working on my mounts. So I asked him for pictures (or it did not happened ) to start a new taxidermy thread. Here are some of the pictures I received.

The buffalo ft will be cigar ashtrays.

Very nice Oscar

Thank you gents, I can't wait to get my hands on them and figure out where to put them. I had seen @gizmo work on this forum which was one of the reasons I chose him. Plus, he is here in the US.

Erik and his team does great work.

Nice, do you mind sharing a picture of your lamps? A taxidermist friend in South Dakota made lamps out of white tail deer feet, and they were such a success she now makes them on a regular basis.

May I be so bold to say that the warthog must be the best warthog taxidermy I have ever seen.
That Red Hartebeest comes close second.

Thank you, I like the looks of it.
