       1115 Lg. Deer Standing Leg Attachment (1 front and 1 rear leg)
       1116 Lg. Deer Walking Leg Attachment (1 front and 1 rear leg)

PREPARATION: 	We find it best to pour these deer in the morning and removing them from the molds the following morning. After removing all deer parts from the molds allow the casts to harden slightly.  Once the casts have set up a bit, there is less chance of denting the ware. We find it is easiest to remove the seams, sponge and reapply the texture using slip and a sponge before attaching legs and heads to the deer body. Remember to vent all areas necessary before attaching.  Attach the legs to the deer first.
Attach the deer heads.  Before adding slip to the attaching areas of the head, do a dry run to get an idea exactly where the head attaches to the body.  Once this is determined, apply slip and attach head to body.
To better disguise the attached areas of the legs and heads, use slightly set up slip and a pallet knife or flexible scraper and apply smoothly to the attached areas.  When the greenware is leather hard, sponge areas and reapply the texture to the fur using a damp sponge and slip, gently patting the texture back on the deer.
When dry, finish cleaning and fire to cone 04.
BASECOAT: Buttermilk to the entire deer.
WASH:  Apply a Med. Mocha wash and wipe off wash before the wash dries.
DRYBRUSH:  Using a 2” painters brush, drybrush the deer with 2 coats of Buttermilk, continue with 3 to 4 coats of White.  Blush cheeks and inside of ears with blush color of choice.
SHADE:  Shade where desired with Med. Mocha.
PAINT:  Eyes using Turquoise and Rich Blue.  Nose with Black and dry brush the nose with Med. Gray and White.
FINISH:  Apply Gloss Sealer to hooves, antlers and female deer hair and apply iridescent glitter.  Decorate necks with Christmas greens as desired.
NOTE:  Using a 2” painters brush it takes approximately ½ hour to complete 1 deer, starting from the wash through the dry brushing.  I would also use the painters brush for the base coating.
