Painted Taxidermy

[buckbull]

Native Indian tribes painted the leather, antlers, horns etc. of the animals they killed. I don't think people consider that disrespectful. Not really my taste but I could see a market for this kind of thing.

No thank you. I have to agree with badgerbob. The animals are beautiful all on their own. They don't need any dressing up.

Just a thought you may be on to something here. I see tons of old taxidermy that people don't want. Lots of em in bad shape. I think this is a pretty good way to reclaim, sell for profit. These would sell in all the high end Colorado ski towns, and get a very nice price to more than cover cost and make a solid profit that would be worth the effort.

Maybe a tiara like the one on my teenage daughter's buck is more to some folk's liking. Isn't it pretty!

hahaha, I love it! my daughter would kill me if she came home to see a head of any sort in her room.

Ivory, I'd be in the same boat with you if I put some wall art in her room. The best I could dno is a picture of her with my first bull and lab!

 

[ivorytip]

ha, nice first bull and one good looking lab! getting my labs out today to sniff out head gear.

Ivory she's a great lab, I just don't hunt her enough. I bought her as a failed field trail pup at eight months old. Trained for hand signals and whistle. The best thing I ever did.
