Started to work on a trophy room!
#31611 - 21/05/05 01:26 AM

Here are some photos from my trophyroom that I started to build up at my office.

I got two mounts yesterday (Bushbuck and Black Wildebeest) along with a lot of skulls and skin.

Just wanted to say that the dog in picture #2 is alive and very interested in all the stuff.

Christer

It is interesting how you have hung your shoulder mounts. One of these days I plan to build a new study and then move a lot of mounts into it. My mounts used to hang in a different house and recently brought them to my farm. I have procrastinated on putting them on the walls so far. Some will definitely stay where they are so can go straight in now. But half of my lounge is a zoo at the moment with another six or so coming.

I like the full mounted bushbuck. I have one on the way but haven't seen it yet.

Your trophy room is looking good.

Thanks John

The stand alone walls were made for fairs etc, dont't take a lot space to move, asey yf the bricks at the bottom is removed and you can display your stuff everywere without making damage to walls.

I counted and I have 15 shoulders another full and a half Giraffe coming next time.....

In reply to:

I had exactly the same thought.

Christer - displaying shoulder mounts that way almost makes them into pedastal mounts.

Christer,

Congrats on your office. Animals are much more decorative than having books and other useless crap lining the walls!

I see there will be place for your giraffe as well

And also there is a lot of space left for more trophies we will need to make a plan.

Now if this is your "office" where is the desk?

Looking good, but I can still see walls and the floor.

More work to do on safari. Someone has got to do it.
