Jbest,....nice job theres one thing that pops out to me as I look at your mount and the ear butt is to low. I would move this up closer to the antlers and this would greatly improve things. Nice job!

like I got room to talk, but the brisket flair is out past the front and center of the leg, the dark hair that you have on the side of the form, is actually the front of the leg.
There is a good picture of the brisket in the Deer and Gamehead reference on the second page that shows the flair. And the ear butt should be closer to the antler, also see the pictures in the D&GH category for that.
P.S. You must be a really short person, or you have really high walls?

Stop Rot,,use it or lose it.

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

great looking mount - the distance between the antler and the ear butt is about the width of your ring finger - i always just put my finger against antler and move butt up to where it touches my finger - got this tip from breakthrough magazine

Brisket, arm pit area and leg skin position and the ear butts. Ditto above for the corrections.
