I am 16 years old and just finished my first two mounts. I still have to paint the deer so the white that is in the picture is from the epoxy in the nose, I also have a question about the mallard; how can you accomplish laying the feathers dowm nicely and getting the same color through on the back, also there is a patch of ruffed up feathers that stil will not lay down can I fix this? It is on the other side o the head. I tried doing some closeups but the flash wouldn't work for some reason. Sorry for the bad pics. I am open to any recommendations I know there are many flaws in each of the mounts and hopefully I will get a lot better once I get more speicemens from my next hunting seasons.
You can go here to look at the pictures.

I don't think that snapfish is going to work does anyone know of a websight or something where I can publicly post these pictures?
Photobucket.com will work. You should be able to tape the feathers down till they dry.
I think this will now work

Those pics are extremely dark, it's really hard to see any detail. But the mounts look good as far as i can see.
