close up eye pics of your competition mounts and a brief explanation of what is finish work and what is actual skin.    Not sure if I  posed the question right but I see a lot of beautiful smooth clean comp pieces and just trying to gain some insight.    People like Dennis "*" , Bill, Rick, Matt, Tommy, Kenneth, etc .... the list goes on and on, have extremely smooth clean eyes.   Any help would be appreciated.

Stop Rot,,use it or lose it.

Don't put "taxidermy" in your user name until you are one.
