Would love to see a few more shots of that Rhino mount. I am going on a hunt this year and I am thinking about a full mount, Thank you.

My walls are also kind of a light sage green color

I've found that dark accent walls don't work well for most African animals. Dark accent walls can look good with just whitened skulls like predators that don't have horns. They can also sometimes look good with whitetail euro mounts that have lighter colored antlers.

For shoulder mounts or even euro mount African animals that have dark horns, lighter to medium wall colors are best to make them pop.

Hi guys, so trophy room is a bit of a stretch. It’s more where I do my reloading and have a few mounts but you get the idea. Anyway we were going to paint a few rooms with a solid wall colour at one end. Probably a dark/deep blue.

Has anyone got anything similar? I imagine a white would be the best bet for mounts. Will a dark colour work or make everything look a bit rubbish?

Can I please see a pic of the intended target of your decorations. Need to see lighting and what’s on the floor. I’ll knock you up a colour plan fairly quick. (Been doing it for a living for 30 years)

Thanks folks. I think we’ll just go an off white like and play it safe

Get a small cardboard box. Knock the end out and paint three sides your intended colour. Then look through the end whilst standing in the room. It will give you a very good idea on how the finished project will look.

My wife chose this color and said that the mounts would stand out. I believe she was right.

I’m now in the waiting stage so no Euros
Yet but they should pop with the grayish blue we made my home office. I work remotely and needed a calm color as I spend a lot of time here. I think it turned out pretty good so far.

I didn’t really have the option of color on the walls. Good thing is I get solid wood everywhere. This is a morning picture so the east facing windows bring lots of light. Windows are triple glazed with Low E coating on two surfaces with the addition of a solar blocking film on the inside, so I’m blocking pretty much all the UV rays that cause fading. I was in the window business.View attachment 690481

Can any window company install these treatments and films? What exactly are they called? Any idea on costing? Feel free to PM me, I’ve got a could dormer windows I’d like to get treated so I can mount a couple kudu below them

All I will say is look at the threads on here. Wall color is the one thing I wish I changed in my build. Now its a ton of work, I now think mine is to bright. Now @Red Leg 's darker green is phenomenal in my eyes. Maybe one day I will clear that big end wall and paint it a darker color I should have the first time. I think darker color makes room more inviting, comfy and pops more specimens.

Spend the time to really look, choose and try and see what you want before you decide.
