Just curious can reproductions be made off of already made reproduction antlers without doing damage to the first set? I dont know if the stain would be removed or what?

Depends on how well the colouring agent was applied, how well (if) it was sealed, what the colouring agent is, what the molding material is, what the release agent is, what chemical you will use to remove that release agent etc.
Also - there is the possible legal factor of reproducing something already reproduced as someone may own the sole rights to the set.
Its not right!
what isnt right about it?
Paul the Pirate, it is just like copying music that you didn't pay for. That what's not right about it.
well I Have paid for it , It is called hunting . I killed these Canadian bucks and already had reproductions made of them . Now instead of messing with my real antlers I was JUST curious if it was possible to make them off the reproductions! Who knows maybe I will take myself to court over this one! Just Kidden there finger pointer
you are quite the little jerk for someone who knows nothing about this reproduction stuff.
Paul if you have the originals and you have the repro's then just use the mold and pour your own ,it's that easy RIGHT
Well Jay thanks for the compliment! If I knew anything about this reproduction stuff I would not have posted a questions like this now would I? All I was doing is looking for a little advice Isnt that what this place is about ? As for the molds The guy said he shipped them to me and apparently they got lost in the mail? I know its bogus but what do you do?
Yes you can do it - but there may be certain risks associated with the combinations of materials and the actual construction techniques employed. The only way to know for sure is to try it. As a general rule - if you use silicone and the colouring was applied well - you shouldn't have any problems. If the colouring DOES come off, just repaint them.
Hope that helps =)
Thank you , I will give it a shot.
Sorry if jumped to fast. But there so many guys trying to pirate these replicas now days it ticks me off. I pay a lot of money for them and there are guys that laugh about it and try to belittle me because they brag about how much they save on second generation copy's. If they are legal for you to do I wish you luck
