Other than it is a dreaded straight. Look at the pics of the eyes, do they match? Tuck those nostrils and pre-orbitles more, taxi the skin hair to hairon the glands. glands. Hair patterns on the forehead appear off. Not trying to be mean, these are just what I see could use some work. I would use smaller pins on the face if you are gonna use pins. I often times take pics of a mount while I am working on it. I look at the pics and various flaws jump out at me, but while looking at the mount I don't see them as well. Good luck 3bears

Looks good. Id let it set for awhile than come back later when the cape has shrunk. You can look at your pics to see where you need to adjust.

Left eye is too heavy on top, to much clay. Ears seem to stick out to far for an alert look. Use brush to smooth out eye shape and pre orbital and keep at them as they dry, also as per other posts. Nice job though.

Love the brisket area! i'm just a beginner, but I too think the ears are out to far. Looks like they need to be pushed forward a bit for an alert look.

It looks like it passes the" 6 foot rule". The finished mount is attractive. Did you make the adjustments? Can't really tell from pics. Something I forgot to mention is the earbutts. They look to be too big. Going through ref. pics I have shows that the butts don't go down past the eyes that much. Maybe I am off my rocker, don't think so? Look closer at ref. pics and maybe you will see where I am coming from. It does look pretty good, for a straight. 3bears
