« on: July 16, 2009, 08:14:48 PM »
Just got this thing done today.  It's the girls first Elk.  I like the way both brows curl down.

Yes she is indian.  This was her first Elk.  It is actually Artificial Velvet.  When she shot it and it fell it broke the velvet.  They also didn't know how to care for the velvet and the head sat in the back of the truck for a few days befor they decided what they wanted to do with it.

Was that done by Research Mannikins Michelle? I'm sending them a whitetail next month. It will be the first time I've used them for this proccess. Looks good.

Yes it was Elkstuffer.  I had them do a 3 way mix on these antlers.  The velvet looks good.  Here are some close ups of the velvet.
