You can choose a wooden plaque to mount your deer skull.You can make your own mount from any section of wood that is at least 5 inches by 8 inches.
The wood mounting plaque needs to be sanded.You can't finish the wood with paint or stain after you attach the deer head.Dust the plaque with a tack cloth.
The plaque can be painted or stained.This prevents others from detecting the brush strokes as they mimic the grain of the wood.Allow the plaque to be dry for a few days.
An assistant should hold the deer skull.Your assistant should hold the skull face in his hands and show the full back and bottom of it to you.
The deer's skull should be covered with a wooden plaque.The back of the skull does not provide a flat surface for the plaque to sit on.
The skull is in the middle of the plaque.The plaque or skull needs to be moved by your assistant.
