Alrighty... another update
We added the leather strapping to the horns and added the imitation eagle feathers. Also drilled a few tiny holes around the eye sockets and weaved in these dreamcatchers that one of my best friends got me for my birthday.
All we have left to do it polyurethane on the horns, leather straps, and the imitation eagle feathers and then Josh is going to put a mount on the back for me. I'll take the FINAL picture when it's completely done and up on the wall.
One thing I have learned though is that next time I'm going to put polyurethane on the feathers BEFORE I hang them from the horns to seal them so I don't have to keep fixing them.
So... here's some pics
Josh holding the skull up so you can see what it would look like on the wall
I used flash on these next two pics so bear with me...
Here's a closer up so you can kind of see the dreamcatcher in one of the eye sockets.
One more of it on the table
Side note: I think I'm going to start doing a bunch more of these and selling them... going to try and do some custom designs for people so if anyone is interested or knows anyone who might be interested in one let me know. I will ship them since I know someone out here who is absolutely amazing at packing stuff.
