here is an old musky mount I fixed up for a local resturant, I fixed the fins, although the dorsal I think is way wrong, rebuilt and shrunken areas, and gave it a new paint job, it is all painted by hand with a brush and tipped with pearl ex powders.....let me know what ya think!  this is my first time even seeing a musky in person lol, thanks!

Hello twig

I think you did a heck of a job
Really like keeping it as original as possible
The only thing I can see would be a little more work on the fin rays
I do like it
