    Cool Alberta Non-Typical Velvet WT Pedestal Pics

    Hey All,

    Here are a few pics of a buck I just finished up with. My good friend shot this buck last year on the first day of the season in Alberta. Cool unicorn point and a weird non-typical side with a really nice typical side.

    Super short hair, velvet was just barely starting to strip. He was a bit challenging to work with at times, but turned out great. This was my first pedestal mount, first velvet buck, and first major repair on a short-haired cape as he had some issues in caping it out. All in all, I'm quite satisfied with the end result. Sitting on a nice black walnut base that I think matches quite nicely.

    Wow, with that short hair he looks like a texas buck. Nice work on the mount, they way the hide follows the lines and wrinkles is nicely done.
    I for one, though, find the throat patch area on some forms looks unnaturally angular. Does anyone else find that?
