Velvet Euro Bou

[Bambistew]

The weather finally warmed up enough to work with volatile chemicals... so I finished up my euro mount. I think it turned out pretty nice. Hopefully the next one will be hard horned and white maned. Next up a moose rack on a plaque.

Not a fan of velvet antlers...but that looks real good.

I think that looks awesome, much better than some of the ones I've done myself.

Looks great! Will the velvet hold up long-term? Congrats on the mount and the caribou.

That is nice, i like the contrast in color. What did you use to keep the velvet from rotting off?

 

[Oak]

Looks good!

Turned out really nice Bambi! Not sure how you guys are not a fan of velvet. Velvet is the only way to go on 'bou imo.

 

[MinnesotaHunter]

I agree. Not a big fan of deer in velvet, but love how the Bou look in velvet!

Awesome job.

Nice. I'm a fan of velvet antler mounts for the simple fact that they are rare.

Bou look kewl with velvet for sure.

Ethanol?

I sawed the antlers off the skull and had them freeze dried. I cleaned up the skull, and pinned/bondo'ed them back on. I forgot how much of a PITA it is to put antlers back on a skull.

Very nice bou, and I like the velvet antler look.
