Default Project for 8 point rack

I found a dead 8 point that was dead for a couple of weeks, took the rack. I am looking for some ideas for a project which I could use the antlers.

Is the skull good on it still? If it is then I have some good ideas for ya. Its something I do with my euro mounts. Boil the skull out and then build a corner peice that you can hang on the wall and then put your euro mount on there with some scenic stuff. Some of mine have small pine trees and one has a real deer rub with my buck layin against it and then it has posts on the front with barb wire accross it. Ill get some pics to show you.

I only took the skull cap, did not take the whole head.
