290 mule deer antlers carved from wood.

[daynegrant123]

I always wanted a set of antlers with attributes as large as some of the best bucks ever taken. Obviously I couldn't find any like this so I made my own out of wood.
41 1/2 wide. 293 non typical, 242 typical frame.
The photoshop job onto a mount isn't the best but it works for me.

Wow ! those turned out nice.

 

[2lumpy]

Wow, I'm impressed. I've thought that would be a fun project but now I'm intimidated. You've created a master piece.

If you took any pictures, of the progress of the process, even how it looked before you started, it would be really cool to see them.

My e-mail address is: [email protected] if you'd rather e-mail them.

Regardless, thanks a lot for sharing. I'm a sucker of great art!!

Very impressive! You are very talented. Either your hands are really small, or that is some serious mass. Love it.

How many hours did you donate to this love of labor? Very impressive.

A beautiful work of art. Priceless and one of a kind. Super!

I believe your antlers truly fit the definition of a true artist, you can a see full set of mule deer antlers in a bunch of tree branches. I think that takes more talent then carving them out of glued up boxes of wood. And the vein tracks are fantastic..

Thanks for share your work progress.

Do you have other art work to share?

LAST EDITED ON Jun-05-17 AT 00:13AM (MST)[p]Well thank you. I tried. Finding the right pieces of wood takes hours of hiking around. Especially for the second side. Matching it up is the hardest part. I kept redoing parts that I didn't like. But it came together good enough for me.
I've done quite a bit of carving and some drawing and one other set of antlers, but they're not applicable to this website. And I don't really like my last antlers too much.
I have considered making antlers and selling them. Usually I'm just having fun.

Jeez that is amazing what a job how long did it take you to carve those antlers.

And I am with Lumpy do you have a step by step pictures you can share with us. I would like to see how you go about something like that.

Great Job thanks for sharing

I'm a wood worker - or so I thought.

I'm enough of one to appreciate that art (that is true art)

Stick those in some upscale Jackson Hole store - probably sell for thousands

 

[gznokes]

very cool. Let us know when they sell and for how much

 

[gznokes]

lets see the underside of the burrs. Curious how you handled that
