Killed this guy on the 17th and went ahead and knocked out the euro while i had several out to cleean up. I used a black cherry stain and i have to say i really like it. The really dark bases on this deer dont get lost in the plaque the way they would with a natural wood background. I also tapped the primer in towards the bottom. I know its a small detail and doesn't stand out like brass but i know its there. Thanks for looking.
