Rylan: Your basic supplies for doing deer will be: deer form, eyes, (or deerform w/preset eyes), couple lbs of clay for ear butts and eye modeling, Bondo for the ears, or ear liners, sharp knife (for fleshing and turning the eyes, ears, nose and lips), heavy thread or fishing line (Spiderwire 30-40lb test), a 5" "S" needle for sewing, "T" quilting pins to hold things in place, latex chaulk to use as glue, tanning solution (Rhinehart), salt, surgical scissors (some kind of good knife for trimming meat off around the delicate areas) and rubber gloves. I think that'll do you. If you have any questions along the way, just email me. Did you watch the series of videos on this Google site about deer capes? If not, you should. It would really help you. Plus, read the comments, questions, answers that viewers had. You will learn alot by their questions and answers too. Thanks.
