This is the only example I have in the house. If you want more, I’ll have to hit the garage. This was my very first attempt at a restoration. Used a few different colours of Minwax stains. Some light sanding and filling of cracks. Used 0000 steel wool to dull a bit and polish the tips and a couple spots along the bases and beams to look like polished spots from rubbing. It’s the only elk I’ve done and wasn’t chalked right out. Wasn’t a hard white either.
The rest are deer. I’m in the process of restoring a full moose rack currently. It was so bad and I’m told it’s right around 100 years of age. Drilling holes for wire and reforming points and portions of the paddles. It’s working out but quite time consuming and tedious. I’ll be quite proud when complete.
If you want some pics of deer, just let me know and I’ll go snap a couple.
