wooly Posted February 3, 2018 Share Posted February 3, 2018 I know some of you guys like to see these things, and I always get a sense of relief and accomplishment when I finally finish a project like this up. I just finished this one for a friend who had me do some work on a buck skull last fall as well. Her hubby brought this back from a west coast hunting trip years ago, and they've since gotten bored with it and asked me to dress it up a bit. This skull will be going home with her this weekend. 15 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zag Posted February 3, 2018 Share Posted February 3, 2018 Nice man, the one I bought from you sits on a shelf in our bedroom. My wife ran some Xmas lights thru it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crappyice Posted February 3, 2018 Share Posted February 3, 2018 Amazing- I wouldn’t have a clue where to start with a project like that. What I like most is how balanced it looks. To mimic the design on the left and right of the skull must be so difficult-impressive!Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cabin Fever Posted February 3, 2018 Share Posted February 3, 2018 Awesome job Matt! The detail is incredible! Do you plan the design out before you start or just wing it as you go? Sent from my SM-G900V using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you plan the design out before you start or just wing it as you go? Sent from my SM-G900V using Tapatalk Thanks guys! I usually have an idea in my head of what I want it to look like, but once I start to draw it on there it needs to altered for fit and balance... so I guess I'm just winging it. Sometimes the end product doesn't even come close to what I had planned. I probably sand away more material removing my pencil marks than I do actually carving! I really can't draw for squat! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pygmy Posted February 3, 2018 Share Posted February 3, 2018 I made the mistake of showing The Mermaid this thread... Now she wants Wooly to carve MY melon head after I kick the bucket.... I guess it's better than spending the rest of eternity in an URN on the mantle...<<sigh>>... 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
