No one can capture the majesty of deer and elk like wildlife artist Todd Swaim.

Here, in his first how-to book, Todd shares his tips and techniques for carving trophy deer and elk busts in wood.

You'll find step-by-step photos detailing the roughing out of the bust, how to use power tools to create realistic looking hair, what painting techniques work best on these beautiful miniature trophies, and more.

An appendix includes anatomy sketches, hair tracts illustration and painting charts for the whitetail deer, the mule deer and the bull elk.
