Although, the idea of having the leather (the skin of a cow) mimicking the face of another animal (in this case a dog) brings up mixed feelings. When its fantasy creatures it's one thing, but I'm trying to wrap my head around this idea. It's almost like stuffing animals. Their likeness will be around far longer than the actual animal. And I mean no disrespect by these comments either. Your work is incredible.

True...once I was commissioned to make a cow mask & the irony was not lost on me.
This is actually one of my favorites! Good work!
