Hello,

Has anyone mounted a Warthog open mouthed? If so do you have pictures or a web-site I can go to see it. Also if anyone has reference photos of the mouth of the warthog that would be great. I plan to use the original bottom skull and maybe even the top. Any help would be great!

Thanks Shane

Shane,
It is not that bad really, I use the Warthogs actual whets and tusks but not the bone. I buy the largest Wild Boar jaw set and then dremel out there tusks/Whets to fit the Warthogs.You will need to carefully align everything so that it fits then epoxy it all together and then blend it in with some flesh colored Apoxy clay. I charge $200.00 extra and would rather do them with there mouth closed.I am not a big fan of Warthogs anyway! I hope I explained that clearly if you have any questions feel free to E-mail me....Jim
