Best way to mount Wildebeest?

I love to overthink things and would appreciate your indulgence.

Currently trying to get some sort of taxidermy game plan together for my upcoming hunt. One of my priority targets is a Niassa Wildebeest. I think they are the most handsome of the wildebeest. I tend to prefer euros of everything, and initially thought to do a rug, but not sure if that would do it justice. Is a shoulder mount the way to go or is there a better way to present more of the stripes and the white chevron?
This is a great problem to have! I wish you luck. May I ask who you are hunting Niassa with?
I’m headed there next August.
 
I wanted all that beautiful blue/black brindle hide I could fit on a wall mount. I wish I had a picture from the back of this bull as his neck really shows off the color and the horn spread.

Saw a good looking knife you posted a pic of with the watermelon. Can I ask the make? Looks like you hunted with Guav Johnson? We overlapped in the Save once. Would like to hunt with him one day..
