    OMG that dog gives me the chills - beautifully done but it looks so alive with all those pins looks like the poor thing lost a fight with a porcupine - (ludvik i'm in love with your raven) a few that are awaiting some finish work - sorry for the over shading of the stanley crane but it was the exact color of the backdrop all you could see was its eyes and legs haha - The white stork is going with a group of Hyena's at a museum and its supposed to be 'running out of the way' - not my first choice for a pose - but I do what I'm paid to ;)

    nice eagle-owl preparateur, your son is really good,
    Ole, I know this kind of tjäders from hunting early November in Sweden, terrible job to do,
    fowl, that black duck is fantastic and I love the pose, too,
    Nate, great action and fantastic starre at your redhead,
    thanks for sharing, Rainer.

    This Mallard is the first bird I ever mounted! It is so discusting :-X, but my wife won't let me throw it away. I have it sitting next to a Reeve's/Ringneck that is just about complete! Not that I am up to par with most of you, but I can definitely see where I have improved. This is not a great picture, but though you folks might get a kick out of it. The duck looks like he has had a pretty rough day ;D
