Bobo 135 Posted January 11, 2015 Report Share Posted January 11, 2015 Rob,I up until now have liked all of your work however I am not impressed by this piece. Only my opinion of course but not my cup of tea. Somebody will like it though. Thanks for showing it. 5 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
socks 32,253 Posted January 11, 2015 Report Share Posted January 11, 2015 Yep I love all the work you do but there is something about this piece that I don't like ... It just doesn't look real to me ........ 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Bootsha 1,306 Posted January 11, 2015 Report Share Posted January 11, 2015 its not a criticism of the standard of work, i just think the fox was perhaps mid way through the moult or something???? not that sleek elegant form that you normally see, again, just my opinion. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RossM 8,119 Posted January 11, 2015 Report Share Posted January 11, 2015 I think it's the fur on the head/face area looking at it? It looks to go almost fluffy? Still a very impressive gift you have though. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

cragman 2,770 Posted January 11, 2015 Report Share Posted January 11, 2015 When I stayed over at a farmhouse in the lakes, they had a taxidermied full fox by the fireplace. It was curled up with its brush over its mask and with eyes just open, almost peeping. I'm yet to see a better one anywhere, it was outstanding and very lifelike 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
leegreen 2,173 Posted January 11, 2015 Report Share Posted January 11, 2015 You do some great stuff, but some of your work looks like it could do with a brush. I not feeling this. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
redial 81 Posted January 12, 2015 Report Share Posted January 12, 2015 I would give Reynard a home. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
skinner 348 Posted January 12, 2015 Report Share Posted January 12, 2015 Thanks for the comments fellas, don't always get it right but that's how you learn and get it better next. feck me rob your getting some thrashing on this one , I gave it a 6 which I think was fair because to do a fox like that when it was decomposed when you did it is good 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
