Lion Taxidermy Pictures

Dennis in addition to the eyes, I love the wet nose, mouth and lips.
 
I have a painting where I swear the eyes of the animal in the middle follow you as your walk by.

I've seen paintings like that. Very cool effect.
 
Maybe something like this. I just wanted to see how other AH members have mounted their cats. Does anyone else have photos of their lion taxidermy?

Be sure to mount that with enough space between the paws to get pictures of your guests standing between them!
 
I think the photo of the taxidermy mount above looks great, post #23!
 
This is the same mannakin from many of these posts including #23 that are used in altered ways.....

You can have her walking or standing on a rock, with her head lowered to put her gaze eye-to-eye with yours.

A more aggressive facial expression can be used if that is your wish. In this type of stance, she can be mounted with "the stare" right at your eye level.

We can also go through my myriad of photo reference files of poses and expressions, culminating in a pencil drawing of your idea to be used as a 'blueprint' for your mount.

Simply the best...Just look at the detail. Outstanding.
 
You gotta love this guy's taxidermy!
 
Dave,

Have you seen the one that was just put up by Relive on FB?
Problem with African bases is the habitat...very scares. My understanding is they don't have the availability to nice habitat

Everyone always thinks about the worst thing that can happen, maybe ask yourself what's the best outcome that could happen?
Very inquisitive warthogs
