Antler Repairs and Coloring

Good friend Rube W. brought me a set of coues deer horns and asked me to fix them and re-color.  I know I was up against a big challenge but wanted to give it a try.  This is what I started with.

As you can see they are really cracked up and pretty chalky with 2 busted points on the right side.  I fixed the points.

After the fixing the points and cracks the painting began.

As you can see the back point still wasn't the color I was looking for so I worked a little bit longer and the bottom is the finished product.  It turned out well.  If you have a dead head that you picked up or sheds that you would like to get fixed up bring them in and let us help assess them and see if they are repairable.

Below is my brother Vaughn's 2012 buck that had a busted G2.  Here it is fixed.

Coloring Antlers

Below are a few sets of horns that I just completed a make over on.  Both sets had previous color jobs that needed some help.  Coloring antlers is a difficult task and takes a ton of time to get it right.  Keep this in mind if you have a set that needs some help.  The coues deer set we purchased and it had cracks and they were almost orange.  The mule deer set is a set of replicas that the color job had been damaged pretty bad.  Keep this in mind if you have a dead head or a set of sheds that are white and has minor cracks.  We can do a make over on them and get them back into shape.
