Your photo can't be too dark or too bright. Natural lighting is best, so take your mount outside if possible. Turn on your flash if needed but ensure there are no bright highlights that won't match the lighting of the scene. Remember, we use your actual photo, so natural shadows and colors are important!
We extract the antlers from the photos you send us. If they are all white and washed out or too dark, thats how it will look in the scene. You want to be able to clearly see all of the fine details. You want the most natural light possible!
