Had a client bring me two mule deer racks he and his father shot years ago; both Montana bucks were just skull capped. He wanted me to create a lasting scene with them in remembrance of the hunt he shared with his dad and gave me free reign to be creative....which can be dangerous. So...I had a few extra mule deer skulls from customers shoulder mounts (minus the antlers of course) that I kept as beetle food. Euro'd the skulls, attached the skull-capped antlers from the two bucks and after some putty work and seaming to hide the lines I burnt the edges of the skulls to give a little rustic look. Added the skulls to an old fence post laterally and attached some sage and barbed wire. The client loved the look and idea, which made for a good day in the shop. Thought I would share....Joel/BRT.

Bet the owner was thrilled and the neighbors thought some fish died.

Excellent job on the seams too, if you hadn't mentioned it I wouldn't have even noticed. Still tough even when you are looking for it. Well done!

There’s some about euros, old wood and barbed wire. Great work.

Good attention to detail. I like the moss on the post and the sagebrush. Its what you would see if it was laying out in the desert on its side for years. The aged look of the skulls matches the look of the post. Everything fits, very cool.

Really nice. Just needs a mouse or lizard peering out of one of the eye sockets.
