And Mr Steamy Von Moose is now a much happier moose with his antlers on!
They are held on with a couple dowels and glue. I need to let the glue set up some more, then I can do the final tufts of fur around the base of the antlers. After that I'll take it him outside for a couple coats of lacquer sealer. The sealer controls how much the thinned paint wash soaks into the wood, giving a lot more control over the tones. I use Liquitex acrylic artists paints on the carvings, learned my techniques from the bird carving books that Floyd Scholz wrote - a master bird carver with great teachings in his books.

Thanks Kim! He just got his seal coat and is basking out in the sunshine to dry. That lacquer is stinky stuff.
