BAD HEAD ANGLE

Submitted by TIM on 2/23/01. ( ) 64.12.97.9

i did my first deer head {neck mount} and never paid any attention to the angle on the head form but now that i took it off the stand and put it on a wall the deers head is looking down at an angle! it's not looking straight out from the wall. it looks like it would have to be hung way up on a wall in a room with a high ceiling to look decent. did anyone ever run in to this? i dont think there's anything i can do with it but i'd appreciate some suggestions if there are any. i hope i'm explaining this right. thanks in advance,

TIM

Not sure if this will help never had tihs problem bu could you unstable the cape from the back of the mold and cut the mold it self so that when you reattack it to the panel it will look up more? Not sue if this is possible just a suggestion. Bill


Who's form did you use.

Sounds like you used a aggresive form for this. The scupltors know more about deer than 90% of the taxidermist. When you see a form advetised, that you dont use normally, put the antlers on it and hang it on the wall, study it for a few days.

These head down forms are usualy sold as aggresive poses.
