Awesome job! I didn’t even know revelveting antlers was an option. I have an old set of whitetail antlers in velvet that my old man shot in the early 80’s with his bow. The mice got to them and ate holes on the velvet. I think I might try stripping them and attempt this myself. Great video as always. Thanks for sharing! Cheers!
WOW! What a amazing video and a big thank you for showcasing our products. Your tutorial of how to use the Static King, Velvet Kit and its accompanying supplies to re-velvet these caribou antlers was excellent. We are so appreciative of you sharing the process and what you've learned with your subscribers and RU-vidrs. We can't wait to see your elk antlers video, too. Keep up the great work!
Another great job! When I saw the title of this video; I thought to myself: "I bet static grass would work for that!" Sure enough, that is exactly what you did! I have been using woodland scenics products for years for dioramas, model kits, wargaming miniatures etc. and I was geeking out watching it used on this as well! Cheers!
Wow!!!!! Good job!!!!! Turned out great!!!!! Velvet can be tricky.as you know.if that was my animal and you did that, I would be pleased.two thumbs up from me. Take care,your freind from Nebraska
Cool video, something different but I love these ones too... Anything antler work, i.e repairs, fixing chalk, broken tines, recoloring are all really awesome, and now we have re-velveting, too friggin sweet!!! Thanks again sir!!!
Wow, what can you say, never thought there was away to do that . I'm so glad you gave it a shot, i see a lot of those fixing to come out of your shop. Great job.. See Ya
As someone who is huge into the mini hobby building community it was really funny to see another use for a tool! I have always used it for applying fake grass to my minis. A tip that will help with cleanup on the table is if you get a vacuum and place pantyhose over the nozzle it will suck up the fuzz and keep it safe in the netting. I recommend looking up videos in the mini community, very different from your content but you might pick up some more great tips on how others use the tool for other hobbies.
You are awesome! If it wasn't for you and your videos I would have ruined so many personal projects. Thank you so much for the inspiration hopefully one day I can make it into a career like you have 😊
This is a great episode. Thank you for educating us. I want to do this to my velvet buck I had to strip, 20 yrs ago. Bring him back to original, almost.
Static grass is amazing, miniatures I like to make use this grass quite a bit so I got more excited seeing you use something so familiar to a mini's artist like me!!
What an amazing product. We have nothing like that here in Australia. I’ll be ordering some from you guys and have it posted over to try on a couple of sheds. Thanks for sharing Love your work
Thank for this video. I watch all of your videos, but I just recently bought my own system to re velvet some deer antlers and have been hesitant to try it. Now I know enough that I think I can figure it out. Keep up the great work.
People that make dioramas use glue in spray bottle on the first layer of static fibers and then add another layer so it is more dense. you should experiment with it :D.
I just subscribed to this channel!! This channel is fantastic! Ryan you do great work and I’ve done some things myself mimicking your work! Not as good of course. Love the outlook of the hunting community in your videos!! Keep up the great work!!
One person I've seen using a Static King is Luke Towan, he seems to use a wire on the grounding clip and touches the tip of the wire to the patches of glue.
Do you have a video on how to get antlers cleaned and white? My friend shot one and I'm trying to clean up the rack and get the antlers ready for a mount
I've tried cleaning velvet like that off an axis deer (definitely not tht fresh though) and just blew through the antlers. Different (earlier) stage of growth maybe? You mentioned at the beginning that they lost a nose bone. Did you replace it with somethng from your 'parts bin'? How did you cleaning and prep work allign with the instructions that came with the kit? DO the colors that come withthe kit change based ont eh species kit you buy? I'm wondering how important it is to specify the orrect species when ordering. Nice to hear the classic 'closing' is back! LOL!! Thanks for the great tutorial Ryan!
they lost, then found the nose bone I just glued it back up. you buy kit colors based on the animal species and prep is the same . thank you for watching
I love the velvet look on the caribou, but after watching videos of hunts, they always strip it off. Now there's a way to have the velvet look without the decomp from the blood and tissue.
I really want a caribou bull but sadly they don’t ship to me so I had the marvelous idea to buy a caribou rack and dismount them so I can mount it on a deer like a red stag skull and that, how do you recommend dismounting a antler rack?
Looks like a great product and everything. The only problem I have is the fact that it doesn't give the right look, since there is a whole lot of tissue involved when the bull has the real velvet. So for me it doesn't look realistic enough. But great job nonetheless!
I euroed a spike elk in velvet. I pressure washed the velvet off but it is like the blood drained into the skull staining it. Any suggestions on getting it out. The skull has a greenish color now in a few spots.
Hey my friend you hunted and harvested more than I for sure since I’m on limited budget lol anyway my question is what does antelope and caribou taste like
ive seen peole flock car pieces model pieces dioramas but never have i seen someone do it for antlers lol i thought youd use lke a velvet cloth or something
