Hi RD - as a VERY rough guide, a fox mask mount may cost in the region of £180-250, depending upon whether you want mouth closed or open, slight turn on the neck, etc....however: there may well be differences on the cost due to 'non-standard' eyes, and also I don't know if an albino pelt can be treated in the same way as a conventional one; if so, again that may bump the price up if anything 'non-standard' is required to preserve/maintain the albinism pigmentation without discolouration.
Best advice would be to ask your friendly/usual taxidermist, but my soggy finger in a stiff breeze says somewhere around 250 quid for a quality job.
Pics up once it's done please!!

I have to say Red Dot the following answers do make you chuckle
. That's only because they don't know the right answersRight, for a good mount on ANY coloured Fox with the mouth open will be around £250 on a shield. The eyes will be slightly dearer to buy, but not of significance. As for tanning a white skin, its no difference to a Red Fox, they are all the same.
I would add that if anyone is mounting Fox masks on shields for less than £200 I would take a long hard look at the work before committing your trophy to be done.

What about a white squirrel shot with a 22 hornet?
Head mount only I'm afraid.

I dont know what it would cost but Colin Dunton did a great job of a cwd for me for about 250 I think , would a full body mount look better ? and have you caught up with it yet ?
Im currently having a full mount done on a big beastie
