The shape and contour of the driftwood is perfection - really cool mount.
I may have to do some treasure hunting on the beach. blush

The driftwood concept would certainly spruce up a couple euro-mounts.

Pretty nice looking.

I have 1 skull that needs something to mount it to. May keep my eyes peeled when we are on the lake this year.

Taxidermist I know has been putting these walnut blocks on the back of his Euro mounts. Got this back 2 weeks ago.

I did one kind of like that with my kid's antelope years back.

I had a clown taxidermist do a EURO mount for me a few years back. 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.
