I did that one for a buddy that passed away last year. They are pretty easy to do. I just use borax. They just take up a bunch of space on a wall.
Thanks.

That's a really unique bird. I believe I would've been forced to mount him. Pretty cool. Looks like you did a great job on his cape, though.

Doing the backstrip is much faster. Looks good and takes up less space.
That smoke colored bird came from Tyler county WV.
