The mount of my Cape Buffalo that I shot in Zimbabwe last summer is done!

"I don't know what there is about buffalo that frightens me so. Lions and leopards and rhinos excite me but don't frighten me. But that buff is so big and mean and ugly and hard to stop, and vindictive and cruel and surly and ornery. He looks like he hates you personally. He looks like you owe him money. He looks like he is hunting you...He makes me sick in the stomach, and he makes my hands sweat, and he dries out my throat and my lips."

Robert Ruark, Horn of the Hunter, 1953

The taxidermy work was done by Anthony Maxwell of Maxwell Wildlife Artistry in Ceres, California.

That's the face I saw looking through my scope and he had bad intentions for the puny humans staring at him across the clearing.

Here's a cell phone picture to guage the size of the bull, I'm 6'2" tall.
