Okay. So as the title says this one isn't perfect but my very first mount ever so it's aight for the time, right? ^^° And don't ask me why I chose to mount a pigeon for the first time... I found out later that they are somehow more difficult to mount and such.
Another thing: Yes, I know the eyes are to bright. The ones I ordered where out and then they sent me acrylic eyes. But wrong ones -.- But yea and that time I already waited so long and I just stick with those.
It took me freaking ages to skin, tan and mount this one lol. I got frustrated quite a few times as well buuuut here he is. It was so difficult for me to make him stand how I want. He is still standing a bit crippled but I couldn't fix it any further. Still so much to learn and I had much fun making him! I think I'm gonna do more birds in the future
Thanks for the tips and hints of some of you
Without you guys I wouldn't even be this far 
And oh well, I'd like to get some good advise for approving!

Oh man. This is awesome. I did my first ever mount yesterday, it was a seagull, and good heavens its kind of terrible XD My question is, how did you get the feathers to lie so neat? And what did you use to pose it? After I washed my seagull skin, the feathers all stuck at weird angles no matter what I did, and so he looks really scruffy, and I used metal wire in the legs and wings, but could only get it to the first joint so they didn't pose very well.
But yeah, this is a super awesome first attempt!
