So Ron, if you don't mine, (inquiring minds want to know) what is the size of the bear paw snow shoe?

Most I've seen were pretty large and would make that head rather large indeed, but nothing in the pic to reference...

Love how it came out, but just curious!!!  :)

These measure 11" X 21"......not to big at all.

Thanks, Ron.  If that is a 5x7 pic below the skull, I'd say that is a rather decent sized skull!

Very cool...

I have some modified bear paw type snowshoes I used in MT...man they're a killer and they were longer then most BPaws, with turned up tips but they wore you plum out! They'd kill me now!

Ron, The mount turned out Great!  Now you know what to do with the other but as Terry said, you need a  volunteer.
Relax,

You'll live longer!
