# Velvet Antler Crown

A pair of antlers still in velvet, shaded with an inverted microfacet lobe: the sheen distribution peaks at grazing incidence instead of head-on, so the light gathers into a fuzzy halo along the silhouette rather than a highlight on the front, and a backscatter term brightens the nap wherever the key swings round toward the eye. It rests as a young spike pair, grows into a full pearled four-point rack, then strips to hard polished bone whose sheen gives way to a mirror gloss.
