What's a guy to do when his desk job is burning him out? Carve skulls! My name is Hunter and I live in Virginia USA and for the past 10+ years I have been working as a real estate appraiser her in VA and working 80+ hour weeks during the busy season leaving me with little time for my family and the outdoors. So, I decided to change that. I have always loved the outdoors and working with my hands building things and carving when I had the time. With my entrepreneurial skills I plan to transfer out of my desk job and pursue my love for all things outdoors and craftsman! I want to share my journey with you and hope that you can learn something along the way. I am very open to sharing how to work with skulls and what I have learned through trial and error. please share your own work here and ask as many questions as you want. Let's get carving!

A deer skull I engraved that I did a few things differently! The skull was missing the incisive bone on the front so I made my own out of metal :) and I cut out a lot of the inside and back of the skull in order to simplify the piece which I think turned out nice. I also used a lot of checkering which tied everything together. If you want to see the how-to on checkering just shoot me a message and I'll send you the YouTube link

Are you using your maceration water in your garden? You should! It directly provides plants with essential micronutrients, vitamins, and minerals while boosting the population of beneficial soil microbes. And no one questions the smell because it's just "fertilizer"

I can't help sharing about stuff I find interesting/cool. Gray fox skulls are distinctive with a rounded sagittal crest with one side smooth and the other very textured. They also have teeth that are spaced apart unlike a red fox where the teeth are close together. I am guessing the teeth have to do with gray foxes having a more omnivorous diet than red foxes.

The textured cranium though I am not sure. I think this is where the mandible (lower jaw) is connected by muscles. Any ideas?

Ended up taking one that was more in a "dead head" condition instead. These were only 72 hours old, which is crazy how well and quickly the flies do their job!

Always something trying to get a free meal...

This is how I wrap the bases of the antlers for the walnut stain (and maceration, degreasing, and peroxide whitening). First wrap in plastic food wrap, then tightly wrap with electrical tape.

Cow Head Sculpture | Real Horns on Antique Terracotta Tile | Minimalist Western Decor
$800.00

A minimalist interpretation of a cow's head created from authentic reclaimed architectural materials and naturally found cow horns. This original sculpture combines real cow horns with a reclaimed structural terra cotta tile salvaged from historic building materials found in Wi******er, Virginia. The rich burgundy color of the fired clay contrasts beautifully with the natural texture and tones of the horns, creating a striking piece that is both rustic and modern. The terra cotta tile is made from natural clay and was originally manufactured as a structural building component. Its hollow cellular interior and ribbed exterior reveal the craftsmanship and utility of a bygone era. Rather than allowing this historic material to be discarded, I transformed it into a unique work of art. The horns came from a cow skull I discovered in the wo…
