Thankfully the deer leather is VERY forgiving, I only had one real spot that was a pain in the arse, and the chin, I was worried about having the seams meet up, but all in all I'm very happy with how it turned out and it looks pretty awesome! My kid thinks so too!

There is an extra leather piece that goes around the back of the head and a small leather strap with greeblies, I'll try and have those finished up in the next couple days!
Best,
