Sorry about the sideways photos, maybe someone can flip them. Anyway the first couple pics are getting the horns mounted on the form. I like to measure the horns from the lip to ensure that they go on the same way they sat on the deers head. Next photo is filler work done around the horns, eyes set, noses carved, lips and tear ducts cut and form sanded.
 
Next put the hide paste on then the hide

Sew it up and tuck lips, set ears, nose and line up hair patterns

Let it dry for a couple weeks. Need to watch it close because as it dries and shrinks things will pull.
