Description

So here's the red fox with the albino eyes again! He was dry today, so I took out all his pins, unwound his muzzle(it was tied to re-position his whiskers because they were being stubborn, and it worked) and painted him up.

For some more pictures of him: sta.sh/21ea9z2s9hvt

~*IMPORTANT*~ Before anyone goes off on me, I didn't choose the eye color. This fox is for a commissioner, and that is the color they chose.

I really love the eyes, even if they aren't traditionally colored. (I have no idea what that would be, I'm new to taxidermy. I believe it would be yellow...) The pose is awesome, and from the angle of the camera with the background it appears to be alive. Those leaves and the tree are perfect props for a fox. Its fur color is lightening, and the leaves appear to have fallen. If it was an arctic fox (Or maybe red foxes' fur changes color, I have no idea) it would be perfect. It looks like it's fur is completely in-sync of the surrounding features. I believe this is one of your better pieces (However I am new to your taxidermy and I'm very much a noob :3)
