First deer head of season was a PAIN

[machine gun man]

Well, after thawing to skin, i noticed three silver dollar holes cut in the front of the neck with some hair missing. Then, the face features were not very normal and had to change out a head on a form, then the neck was too long and had to make that thing fit. to top it off i made myself a little nick in the bottom lip while splitting and also busted through each ear a tiny bit due to splits in the ears... finally got the thing mounted and drying. now i dont like the way the ears look!!. thank goodness this is for a (paying) friend of the family!!! at least i didnt get any slippage as warm as it has been... figure i would post here and take some good critisizm to top it all off. LOL!

It is hard to tell from just that one pic, but it looks like the ears may be turned down a little too far.  There is something that doesn't look right about the eyes either.
