Here’s the fan mount (with breast and back feathers) without the beard and spurs mounted on the art.

Here’s same mount with the added spurs and beard. This thing looks even better in person.

With the latest Turkey fan mount threads I thought I’d add this… I saw this last year and was impressed and decided to have the artist/taxidermist do the same to my first Eastern bird I killed with Brotsky. It turned out amazing! It was a great hunt with a great friend and a great representation Eastern bird with the dark red fan and secondary feather tips. The process done is amazing as he places and sets/glues each feather flat individually perfectly in place.

That is cool. A gizzard stone vial would finish it off nicely.

Love it buddy! That turned out great! A grand slam of mounts like that in a diamond pattern on the wall would be very, very cool and hard to beat. It was a great hunt, a beautiful bird, and it turned into an awesome trophy!
