Wild Boar, thanks

Post by InnerSphere »

Where i live in Italy, wild boar hunting with dogs is the most widespread one .Near my uncle's house in the countryside is full of wild boars, every time I go there I always see at least one. I just want to say thanks to the devs and share some italian RL pics waiting for the patch

Great animal, lousy angle. I don't like putting the animal in front of the hunter/fisher in order to make the catch look bigger.

Yeah I completely agree with you Rexpress, I am so fed up of seeing pictures of hunters posing way further back with their animals so it makes it look like they've shot some sort of freak of nature. That boar is already great, the guy in the picture didn't need to have to stand so far back that it makes it look like the Boar is twice the size of him... :roll:

These pictures are doing the same thing...

That one isn't a wildboar it's a feral hog. There's article about that one but I can't find it for now. By the way it was the biggest feral hog ever shot :P

Yeah I know, I was just using it as an example of people standing further back from the animal in order to make it appear bigger than it is. I'll admit that wasn't the best example seeing as it is, already, a huge animal in it's own right.
