Blackwing Goulds mounts
« on: January 25, 2019, 03:43:24 PM »
Mike did a great job on mine and my wife's mounts.  I went with a "white" head strut mount and he did a semi-upright pose for my wife with a non aggressive head.  Both poses are as close to the last real life poses we saw of them.  Mike did a great job capturing the last poses

That "White Head" is awesome, been thinking of a mount that way for a long time. Really sets it apart from the old red/white/blue or the WAY TOO RED mounts I have seen.

Both look nice.

His mounts look good, until you get up close.

They must look good up close because he just wont it all in Nashville at the taxi competition today.  All of our birds were mounted by taxidermist that are national champs with their mounts.  I like Mike's the best so far

Don't get me wrong, he's good, but not the end all that most people talk about.  Scroll down to "Osceola coming home", that's my bird.  Photo looks great.  Up close, the tail is not even, and the spacing between the primary wing feathers aren't consistent. Just saying.
