Very nice. I like how it isn’t sprayed one shade of grey
 
Great mount. The tracks on the back add an unique touch.
 
DAMN!!!!! Youre Good well done, warties can quickly get screwed up, that warthog is very natural looking alive I almost want to shoot it again to make sure it's dead.

The only comment I can give and it's mostly because cleints want their warties to have have massive tusks is to actually seat them as they should and not pull them out a bit to make it look longer.
Yours is tackfully done where it only takes a good eye to see that the dark black ivory is actually next to the lip and inside the mouth.
I have seen some mounts where the black/dark ivory is pushed so far out that there is a white line before the lips where that part of the tusks was actually sitting inside the tusk cavity inside the mouth.

For monster tusks better to show them off on a plague and if you still want to mount them I'm sure an expert like you could copy fibreglass ones for the mount.

Do you mind me asking what auction you are referencing? I'm not in the market for any of those rifles...just curious.

Frosty in Fort Worth
Getting some culling done!

Good morning from Montana.

I'm looking at a post from 2018 where you were looking for a lefty Winchester in .375 H&H Magnum. I'm selling mine. My email is [redacted] in the event that you're still searching for a unicorn.

Best,

Kelly Palmer
Gents, if you book and pay your deposit before the end of this year , you can have the bigger cull package for the 2026 price! https://www.africahunting.com/threa...griffiths-safaris-starting-at-us-2-560.96285/
