Hi Guys
Last year i was luck enough to take a gold medal CWD, I could not afford a full shoulder mount so decided to boil out and find an alternative method of presenting the head, i didnt like a typical shield as i felt it does not do the head and of course tusks justice. I then started thinking of a pedestal type arrangment. I then decided i wanted to use a set of roe antlers as part of the display as they were perfectly formed to show the head. The pics below are not the finished trophy but just the head on the antlers to see if it looked good, whats your thoughts? i appreciate it may not be to everyones taste. The head and antlers will be mounted as shown on to a black marble base with the medal reccessed inoto the marble to sit plush with a small plaque also. The pics definantly dont do it justice.
Regards
