This one is about 15" around the outside curve. The Walnut butt is held by 4 pins, it is about 2 1/4" and hollowed out. The Antler tip is a two piece held together with 3 pins and to the horn with 3 more. Each Ring is held in place by 3 pins.The color is Mustard, mixed from powdered Milk Paint then covered by Brown Shoe polish and buffed with a brush..

Great horn Tim. The idea of painting is fascinating to me. Both details, and the entire horn. Worthy of some thought and experimentation.

I love these painted horns also. How do you get the rings so dark?

Thanks Again guys.
The Rings were dyed in a boiling pot of some Gun Powder Green Tea that went rogue.
