My 2012 whitetail
« on: March 09, 2013, 07:37:52 PM »
Just finished up the background for my 2012 muzzy whitetail euro mount im doing. All thats left to do is clean the grease up off the horns from boiling. I dont think im going to bleach the skull, i kind of like the dull white, more natural look.

I may add a few more pieces of the grass blades.

I was looking at it again, thinking maybe some sagebrush instead of the grass :dunno: this is my first time doing anything other than the normal plaque. Would like some input.

Try wheat instead of the grass since its a whitetail.
