    I just finished this head for a customer whose dad shot it in 1948 up in the Adirondacks, NY. He made my day with his comments below, they say it all:

    Tom, you've made a grown man tear up! seriously. My dad would have loved this! I am sure this is what he looked like in the wild, it turned out even better than I could ever imagine. OMG!!!

    Thanks so much!,
    Dave

    I have to give Jim Willard from MN a plug here, this replacement cape came from him and it was awesome, all I had to do was wash and mount. Thanks Jim...

    Here are the before and after pictures:

    Looks great, that old mount was the first 'open mouth' mount. :)

    In case anyone took my comment about paint seriously, I was joking. But I was serious about how amazing it looks after.
