Default Some camo dipped skulls.

Here is a bear skull we dipped for a woman, it was her first bear. I dont like the color, but ti each his own.



Here is a cougar skull.



Another bear skull.



We can do any pattern of camo, wood grain, or carbon fiber. I personally dont like skulls done this way, to me it makes them look fake. Just my opinion. I like the natural bleached look better.

Can you make it so the teeth don't get coated? I think that would provide nice contrast.

i was thinking the same thing. it would add a little more definition to the skull IMO

Yeah, we can. That is a good idea!, we havnt done any for anybody like that. I have a few bear skulls in the freezer of my own, I will try one to see how it comes out. It would deffinitely look better in my opinion, There is just too much camo, thats the reason I dont care for them done like that, That would deffinitely break it up and give it a more realistic look. I will do one and post a picture.

I agree, I like the teeth left natural. Here is a pic I borrowed from http://www.ultimateskulls.com/camo-dipping.html.

We could do them, we havnt done any before but it wouldnt be any different than doing a skull. They would probably look pretty cool! i will have to try some.
