I need your honest opinion on this deer mount, heres the deal after trying to mount up some deer (4 i think) i had some mixed results i learned alittle trying on my own. so, finally decided i needed some help and went and got my local taxidermist to give me some training this is the second deer we mounted together and i was wanting your opinion. the first deer he mounted the majority of it but on this one i mounted it he just told me what i did wrong and how to fix it. i know there are some things wrong with it. mainly the finish work the nose is to dark and i dont like the color around the eyes. so let her rip thanks mike r

more clay work around eyes and and replace the littel dots on nose iner ear littel rough
Nice mount overall, I can't judge the nose because the pictures are to dark. You already know what's wrong with the eyes, symmetry is off and as Joe stated you need more clay around the eyes, not much though. The ears look okay, but the butts need a little more fill and shaping, I can see a bump in the top of the liner in the left ear. Keep up the good work and use those reference pictures it will help you with the minor things you have wrong.
The mount looks great for having just done 4. You should be happy with the results as you will just get better. It looks much better than alot of the commercial work available around here.
