Hey guys, some of you may have seen this buck I found while shed hunting a week or so ago... I decided to try and restore it into a skull mount as practice... I started by bleaching the skull and gluing the seams so it was tight again... I then tried staining the antlers... Let me know what you think, the antlers are a bit shiny in the pic since the stain was still a little wet but you get the idea...

Looks great. Nice work
I have an old set I was thinking about doing that to. That gives me motivation.
