He painted the skull with white paint claiming the bones would disintegrate without it. I was not happy at all since I have a ton of EURO mounts in the house that have never had their skulls painted. I keep forgetting to bring it to another taxidermist to fix it or maybe get a small donor buck and have it shoulder mounted.

Never thought of doing anything like that but will need to try that. Either a nice piece of driftwood would be great or a weathered piece of juniper might work?? We had some hard wood floors done a few years ago, with some of the shorter scraps I made up these little stands, not as nice as the others shown but works OK for antelope.

The burl a close second. I saw one where they had cut a tree that had a rub on it and had the skull mounted. That was pretty nice too. CK
