You mean from my lil skinner I got from Graps? Probably so, I think he should have got half way through the thing by looking at my blade when he was done! Lil turd!Mohawk wrote:Looks fantastic! I'll bet Wyatt is pleased with that! Are those some random tool marks I see?

No clear coat yet. Ive used various things on skulls, but polyurethane or laquer tends to yellow it a bit. Im going to use a very thin coat of elmers glue this time at the instructions of a taxidermist or two. Im gonna let him dry a while first though.Jamesh76 wrote:did you spray it with a clear coat afterwards? where did u find the 40% peroxide
Sally Beauty can get it. There is one in Olathe.

Thanks Grant! He is still looking as he did the day I hung him. I never did clear coat him. I don't think I will. Taxidermist tell me it's not needed.
I had some skull work experience before this. This was my first for doing a deer but I've done many bobcats, and several fox.
