    After messing with photos for an hour I think I have them small enough to load on the site. This is my first one. Let me know what you think.

    Ears look to attached to the back of the head, and not where they shoud be, on the sides.

    Thanks - anything else? When I sewed him up it kept pulling the ears back. I am not sure if I got the wrong size mount?

    #10 will look like # 2 if he doesnt get some solid lessons some where like at his States Association instead of guessing and reading crappy info from this site.

    During sewing, keep pushing the hide towards the heads. That makes it much easier to position everything.

    Nice clean looking 1st mount. Good job! Looks better than most of the local hacks around here.
