Lion mount help

I agree that the look of jumping to nothing doesn't fit to me. Add another animal to it and its great though. I think the original idea photo is great with a snarling/slightly opened look would be awesome. So it shows the teeth and the aggression I think your looking for. I think the mouth in the 3rd photo would be too open to use with the 1st photo as its more of a roaring, stationary look. I'm also a big fan of the stalking look.
 
Bsums, I think your right. What I really need to do is go shoot another so I can do both. Lol. If only it were that easy.

I think this facial expression/mouth could look good with the running pose.

Erik,
It is going to cost more but.....get him taking down one of your PG animals, how bad ass would that look at ranch? And you just can't put a price on cool!
Cheers,

You just need a big bore pig with that lion on top of him.

That could become a very interesting conversation piece.

Cody you are spot on but the lion is going at my house, sorry. I didn't skin any of the pg out for that and don't have that much room. It would be awesome though.

Build a bigger trophy room and let's go back to Africa and find a suitable critter, I am a problem solver my friend, no thanks needed! Lol

I'll be in the same boat next year. I'll have to start looking at mounts and pics and make a decision. Hope to see more pics on this thread.

Guys I'm at a total loss on what to do with my lion. I know I want a full body mount and would like something moderately to very aggressive. Other than that idk. I've changed my mind about a million times on what I want the pose to be so any suggestions would be much appreciated. ThanksView attachment 47101
I love this! I would do this with mouth open and a slightly nasty look on his face.

Hallo Marius- do you have possibilities for stags in September during the roar? Where are your hunting areas in Romania?

I'm about ready to pull the trigger on another rifle but would love to see your rifle first, any way you could forward a pic or two?
Thanks,

Love your rifle! I'm needing a heavier rifle for Africa. Sold my .375 Dakota Safari several trips ago. Would you have any interest in a trade of some sort involving the custom 338/06 I have listed here on the site ( I have some room on my asking price. I also have a large quantity of the reloading components and new Redding dies as well as a box of A-Square Dead Tough ammo.
