Wanted a very classy contemporary look to his pieces
They came out very well as usual. and are Ready to crate to send home.
Attention paid to every detail from perfect hair patterns in ears to proper eye set to hair patters to the minute details of the noses and lips and facial muscles. All the pieces of amount should be concentrated on individually and then the overall finished piece is as good as it can get. GOOD taxidermy is the SUM of individually created parts.

Nice work as always!
 
Beautiful mounts!
 
Another happy client in the making! Thanks for sharing!
 
Excellent work Dennis, looking forward to seeing mine real soon!
 
Beautiful work.
 
Looking forward to getting them up on the wall.
 
beautiful work as always Dennis.
I hope you get my caracal started soon if you plan on getting mine all done and delivered before the end of the month
 
WOW (Where is my drool emoji?) Outstanding work, & beautiful mounts. Congrats to the client!

p.s. I love Amarulla over crushed ice! Can I join you? I'll bring the cigars. (y):ROFLMAO:
 
Dennis @The Artistry of Wildlife delivered today, and Mama is going to let me put them all in the living room. Four up so far. (Two trips to Home Depot and One to Lowes today and back to Home Depot tomorrow.)

Lovely work. I am all on board with the clean lines as well - nothing to distract from perfect artisanship. Congrats to both taxidermist and client.
 
Fantastic work as always!
 
Well, I have 6 of 7 up. I had 7, but the Kudu is so big and heavy he pulled out a 300 pound sheet rock plug, no stud. Going to have to improvise. Suggestion welcome.

Wow. What kind of frame is he built on? You will have to find the stud.
