Default Skulls done right

wanted to share...been using beetles for almost 6 years now..got them thanks to encouragements from hunting buddies..
but been cleaning skulls with other methods(maceration and other insect methods and of course simmering) for over 33 years.

Heres some of my previous work and some shots of my Lil beetle room..
