Houdini In Velvet

 Here is a Replica of Houdini that has had the velvet restored by Research Manikin.

 As always, Troy's attention to detail is incredible. 

Every little muscle, wrinkle and blood vessel gets

added and can be seen through the thin summer hide.

The plan is to place him on a custom cedar pedestal. 

Lucky Shadows

This is a Lucky mounted under a few spot lights. The shadows make for a very cool picture.

Life size Desert Sheep

 Here are a pair of life size sheep that Troy has done.

Sheep when it was in progress

 Here are a few pictures of the desert sheep while it was in progress

 The base is a custom rock that hangs on the wall.

This is the first day it was covered. You can still see the paper stuffed in his nose.

Since I have been assisting my dad in the posting of this blog, I thought I would do a little post myself!  I just wanted to share a couple of pictures and thank my dad for instilling in me the love of the outdoors and hunting.  And I'm grateful that my husband loves it too!  :)  We have had some fun experiences that past little while that just reiterates the fact that being outside and loving the outdoors is something that he has definitely put into us (me and my sisters.)  What's funny is when we were younger, we could take all the dance classes we wanted, just as long as we could take off the time to hunt with dad.  We could be girly, but we had to tough out those hunts with him too!  Having a family of my own now I definitely want them to love the outdoors, animals, and being with those they love camping.  Love you dad!  -Tiff

Here's me and my husband Kyle with my 2010 bull.  I had the most amazing experiences on this hunt.  I will remember it forever!

Here's Kyle and our boy Case this last spring Striper fishing at Lake Powell.  Grampa Troy took them along with his brothers.  Let me tell ya, this little boy will never forget this experience!





Desert bighorn sheep

 This is how sheep migrate from Utah to Arizona. He was safely secured in the trailer.

He arrived in one piece unless you count the separate base then he arrived in two pieces.

 The detail in this mount is incredible from the definition in the body all the way down to the front teeth that barely show. Every time I look at this it brings a smile to my face. Thank you Troy!

These sheep are just so majestic.
