The Hunter series by Godspeed is the alternative to real stuffed animal heads hunters often display as trophies.

Rather than using an actual animal head, designer duo Godspeed decided to spare the poor creatures by using spare wood to build the deer head. The antlers are built in a way that will allow at least six to eight coats which is both clever and functional. The artists have [sculpted and signed 16 deer heads](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hughmanity) in different sizes that can be found on their website.
