A trophy mount and a method of making a trophy mount are provided. A skull plate containing antlers or horns may be placed within a mold wherein plaster, concrete, clay, or an epoxy may be poured over the base of the antlers or horns. After the plaster, concrete, clay, or epoxy hardens, the mold is removed to reveal a base within which the antlers or horns are mounted. The mold may shaped to provide a base which resembles any variety of different shapes, items, characters, or novelty items.
