dog,
That looks really cool!! Might I make one suggestion from a visual appeal?? At first glance, everything looks the same, including the skull AND panel. How would it look if the panel was a contrasting color or camo pattern. I think that would really make the skull "pop" at first glance. Not being critical, as it's great work! Just a thought!
I would be interested in the process, cost, etc. Did you have to tape the teeth, time involved, etc. This would work well for a European deer head, or other skulls, too.
Looks good!! Thanks!

That is really nice. Did you bleach the skull before the dip?

I usually put a non matching panel but that's what the guy wanted. I do soak them in peroxide to whiten them it gets any little bits of meat you may have missed. You have to paint the object for the dipping process to work.
