This takes awhile to load, but once it does, you'll realize
why we wanted a full-sized photo of this amazing bass mount done by Tei
Chisenhall. In this classic Food-Chain Scenario, you can see the
detail of a beautifully-mounted largemouth bass, chasing a small
freeze-dried perch, which is after a worm that Tei fashioned from Apoxie-Sculpt
(lower right hand corner).
Tei placed her bass on carefully-selected driftwood
(secured by two screws, one screw through the inside of the mouth and firmly
into the driftwood. Screw is sculpted over and then the paint is
repaired) inside a rough-sawn rectangular base. Shallow fill of
fish gravel mixed with gloss modge-podge keeps the finished mount
looking "wet". Tiny shells gathered from the lake add to the realism,
as do seaweedy-looking plants framing the larger fish.
A beautiful mount, beautifully presented.
