I actually took a little time to snap a few photos with my iPhone. These are the horns I used to recently update the horn reconditioning thread. I need to add more to that also.
Nyala are one of my favorites !

Beautiful mount! Did you do the work? My two favorites are the Kudu & Nyala. I need a Nyala on my wall. :)
 
Nice work, the cape on that Nyala is in outstanding condition.

Yes I did the taxidermy. I do a few mounts in my spare time. This was actually a remount. The first was done in SA and not done very well I'm afraid. We got really lucky as I purchased this as a salted cape from another taxi in the States so I couldn't really preview it before buying. It could have been a train wreck but instead it turned out to be a great cape.

I need a better camera :(
 
Great looking mount. Nyala will be the main emphasis of my next safari.
 
Looking good bud!
 
Looks amazing, horns color real. :E Roll Eyes:Giving me all sorts of ref pics.

Thanks

Well done!
 
Really nice, hope mine comes out like that.
 
That is absolutely beautiful!! Great looking mount. I always wanted to get a nyala now even more so.

Hi Jay,

Hope you're well.

I'm headed your way in January.

Attending SHOT Show has been a long time bucket list item for me.

Finally made it happen and I'm headed to Vegas.

I know you're some distance from Vegas - but would be keen to catch up if it works out.

Have a good one.

Mark

Hello, I have giraffe leg bones similarly carved as well as elephant tusks which came out of the Congo in the mid-sixties
