Here we go!
Sorry, I don´t know anything about the forms used.

I shot an male eland 1 month ago, think I will go with a wall pedestal.

upright straight

1/8 left turn kinda hard to see from the angle of the pic

Here is a few of ours. They are all forms done by relive in the east cape. Some of the forms have been really worked over to enlarge on the eland.

McKenzie makes a nice eland and blue WB wall pedestal form http://www.mckenziesp.com/African-Wall-Pedestals-C1267.aspx. I have used both before. If you have a black WB, Jim Alfred has a nice pedestal that can easily be altered into a wall pedestal.http://www.jimallred.com/SearchResult.aspx?CategoryID=116
Also a newer taxidermy supply company called Headquarters has some new stuff out that looks nice. http://www.hqtaxidermy.com/catalog.html

This might not be what you want but the Blue Wildebeest I got back in 2012 went SCI Gold for a bow. I wanted the arrow that I shot it and a Silver Blesbok to be with it. I made this wall mount for it from wenge wood from Africa.
It might be an alternative to a shoulder mount.

Wow guys, those are beautiful mounts! Thank you! Cool idea Bh! Anyone heard of a droop form? I see them in McKenzie for both animals but can't find a pic of one mounted to see how it looks
