mounted snake skin project

here's a project i finished for my father two years ago. the snake was obviously hit with shot to the head, which made it difficult to piece together, but the end result still ended up pretty nice. origanally, it was about 5', but by the time i was finished it was around 7'. mounted it on felt with a border from hobby lobby and added some plaques telling species and such.

thank you! im still figuring this out

Nice job

Thats really cool!

Great job.

That looks great.

...and that Ladies and Gentlemen, is how you end up with 10'+ rattlesnakes......

Even dead and not skinned, they can be stretched considerably.....

Looks very cool, good job.

It probably needs to be shot again, just in case.

Thats a pretty cool mount. Nice work.
