Dennis,

As always, truly incredible work...! The facial detail is uncomparable to any that I've seen, and your originality of the poses are remarkable.
 
Nice! Got to have a big room for it!
 
Very nice...

i am sure the hunter has a show place all picked out to display these trophy's
 
Thanks everyone, I hope I can do a custom piece for many of you in the future. This was made for a corner of a room, It's not that big. Base is approx 36 by 4,2 to top of mount is under 10 feet.

Amaizing!!!:first:

Thanks Dennis. Again, fantastic work!
 
we can see the huge effort that went into creating this master piece dennis but would you be so kind as to tell me how many hours went into it mate?
 
Thanks Bluey,
Count in design time, Alteration for poses time, welding interior structure of all animals and tree to make it all come apart for shipping, the mounting time fixing skinning flaws and skin damage, finishing time for texturing replaced damaged skin, mouth work and all the deatils.
I'd come up with a number of 100+ man hours.
 
you must go like a cut cat , i wouldve guess alot more hours than that
man you do a spectacular job
dont be shy posting many more pictures my wife loves them
thanks again
 
Dennis, the first time I saw an orange nose on a cat I thought the taxidermist had lost his mind.
Looked at some books and went to the zoo and sure enough....

Its all in the details. You have the detail.

Hello! I saw your post from last year about a missing crate from your hunt in Moz. I am curious how that all turned out? We (my fiancé and I) also hunted in Moz in 2024 and the trophies are being shipped with Hunters Services Limitada. We have some concerns on whether we will get the trophies home or not. May I ask who you hunted with?
