Has anyone carved on an antler?

I know that pieces of antler can be carved. What I am trying figure out is if it is possible to carve on a deer antler. I can’t figure out how you would model the antler so the tool paths would follow the contours of an antler. Is there something that could trace/follow the curve and put it into a format that Carbide can use?

For scanning the antlers see:

Once you have the 3D model you could draw on it in 2D, then create a fine 3D Finishing toolpath to cut only that.

Be sure to use good dust collection and clean up carefully after.
