Styles of mounting antlers
« on: March 11, 2009, 05:52:40 PM »
Is it acceptable do different types or styles of plaques that would be hung in the same room ? Or is it concidered poor taste. I have all of mine on dark wood with leather skull covers but like other styles too and would like to do them when the 'ol mountain gives me the chance.
Can't we all just get along?

Pretty much whatever suits you.  Balance is good.

I dont have all the same plaques on my stuff, but I do match them up if they are going on either side of a head or picture.

I think it looks good to have different sizes and shapes of plaques.

I did six different styles with six different colors for one guy and together they looked great. Pretty much your decision, IMO too much of the same thing is exactly that...Too Much....Joe
