    Something a little different on my work bench. This old trophy New Caledonia Rusa from 30 years ago had a accident at party and "fell" off the wall, broke the Left antler which popped the eye out and tore the skin in several places.

    All finished this afternoon and ready to go back to the customer.

    I delivered the rusa back and the he says do you want a fallow head to clean up and have for payment? Couldn't refuse this monster, it had been unfortunately killed by another buck in the paddock.
