gamekeeper1960 Posted January 2, 2022 Author Report Share Posted January 2, 2022 (edited) Had a few hours mounting my bulls head to a Hazel shank, and even added a tail just for the fun of it... bit of painting still to do but it's coming along nicely...

gamekeeper1960 Posted January 4, 2022 Author Report Share Posted January 4, 2022 (edited) As I said at the beginning of this project this is the first bull I've ever tried to carve and although I'm very happy with how it's gone there are things you learn as you go and I've also taken on board what folks have said, so before I deliver this on I've started on number 2 just for the heck of it (and while waiting for varnish to dry) I've decided to make this one shorter in the body so to make it look heavier in the neck, and also given more breathe to the nose....ah well here we go again.....

TIGHTCHOKE Posted January 4, 2022 Report Share Posted January 4, 2022 That looks better already just by being shorter in the "body" it looks more powerful and stocky. Wish I had your talent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Tightchokes it's the look I was looking for starters but sometimes it's a journey that take you all over the place. ...and I could say how do you know you don't...😏 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
