Description So, I had this skull sitting around in the garden, decided to make it pretty. Partially because I realised battery-powered engraving tools are hella cheap, partially because I saw tourmaline-83's gallery. [link] Go point your face at that stuff, it is pleasing to the eye.
Skull was boiled, bleached, scrubbed, and now smells faintly of a rather nice apple and cucumber detergent. Painted with acrylics and a hint of metalllic dark gold/bronze, which seems to not like showing up on camera, sealed with a dab of polish.
Undecided about putting this one up for sale. The next one, currently enjoying its bleach bubble bath, might be available.

Sorry, didn't see this for ages - probably a bit late now, but of course!

With the engravings the ram looks like a fox.

I'm aware that excessive bleaching can damage the skulls - don't worry about it, dear. This one is definitely not about to turn to powder any time soon.
