shrinkage

Submitted by fred on 1/12/05 at 5:00 PM. ( ) 216.221.108.155

I recently mounted a deer and noticed a little shrinking around the antler burrs. is it possible to rehydrate and put some epoxy around the burrs and put the skin back in place. I was going to use the deer for a competition so i would like it to look right. any suggestions would be appreciated.

or if the shrinkage is not to bad you can rebuild the antler nodules with sculpting epoxy and paint(stain) them to match.
