"Peace is that brief glorious moment in history when everybody stands around reloading" - Thomas Jefferson

Every morning the Zebra wakes up knowing it must outrun the fastest Lion if it wants to stay alive. Every morning the Lion wakes up knowing it must outrun the slowest Zebra or it will starve. It makes no difference if you are a Zebra or a Lion; when the Sun comes up in Africa, you must wake up running......

"If you're being chased by a Lion, you don't have to be faster than the Lion, you just have to be faster than the person next to you."

I like the ones where the teeth were left natural, were they removed?

yes and it's a real pain in the but to get them out and not break them.If the skulls are old and dry when I get them the teeth tend to come out better.

I like it. I tend to think the bronze with the teeth left natural looks best.
Is the bronze coloring painted on or are they being dipped?

I think a BIG wartie would look awesome like this with all the ivory and back teeth left white. A croc skull with white teeth would look great too.

it's a very fine bronze powder in a carrier that you heat after applying then you get to snad and buff it till your fingers are sore rotflmo I coat it with a satin or high gloss finish after that so it will not turn tarnish

So what are you charging for your work? A species list breakdown would be great.

Let us know and you may get some work headed your way!

Awesome! The warthog with natural tusks would look great, would love to have one of them.


All the best
