But you dont have EPO-GRIo 2 part on hand.

You can do it with Epo-Grip two part and use Apoxie Sculpt for eyes, ear butts, set the antlers in bondo.

Heck it would be solid enough in 48 hours to enter at the World Taxidermy Championships. I know I did it!


HUH?

I thought you had to let the hide dry out for a couple weeks before you can sculpt around the eyes and nose and then paint it? How would the hide dry in 48 hours?
