A fisherman acquaintance, who fishes some of the same local rivers as me also happens to be a taxidermist, for the princely sum of 3 sika back legs, he converted these 2 heads into a couple of euro mounts. I just have to mount them to plaques so they can go on the wall.

Looking Good.
They look good!
Do you know what he used to stain the Antlers?
It was some form of paint.
Good deal there!
Great job
They've come up very nice, will look great on the wall:cool:
Yep that’s a nice job. Like it when the skull cut is done right like this.
Dont hang it on a wooden wall......:wtfsmilie:

FWIW I have found a coat of Danish oil on antlers (avoid the tips and gladwrap what you don't want to stain) and then when dry, sand the pearling with a fairly fine sandpaper and then using the 3m type scotch pads between ridges to knock back some shine works really well for the antlers. Although I would probably only use that one on euro mount.
When you only have wooden walls, thats all you can hang them on,
