    I need skulls!!!!

    Ok really I just need a good cast skull. Like resin or plastic for refference. Anyone know where I could get one. I was thinking like a medical school supply place but I really have no idea where to look.
    I have a plastic skull I got at wally world a few years ago but it's in bad shape and not entirely accurate anyway.

    We had a previous thread where members were talking about digging up their own skulls at cemeteries
    The conversations evolved significantly as members talked about methods of cleaning the rotten skull, preserving it and etc etc (it was quite detailed!) something about milk...

    Knock yourself out.
    Or, for a super cheap option, the Skilcraft model kit isn't bad, and you should be able to find one for under $20.

    I'm sorry. I can't help myself...but I have this really lousy neighbor...see? And I have a knife...y'know?

    Do you have a pot we can boil water in that's about ...maybe...13...14" across and the same deep? With a lid...we need a lid.



    We can do this...trust me...









    I'm gonna get banned now, ain't I?

    Jfrancis had started a thread on skulls a few months back on GFX, Sijun, & eatpoo. I got myself a 4th quality skull for drawing thanks to the thread he started up. I forget where I bought it from, but look for a Fouth quality human skull and you should be able to find the company that can handle it form there. In retrospect, I should've saved the cash to buy a full human skeleton.

    Sorry 'stoph, but that reply was for the folks who don't see a search engine query with the words "Fourth quality human skull" as being entirely beyond them. I was unaware that saying the words "look for a Fourth quality human skull" was vauge, but since you're obviously learning impaired let me make it easier, below is a link with all that provided for you with ease since it was just a tad bit beyond your ability to comprehend.

    http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&l...ty+human+skull Do a search like that on Sijun, eatpoo, or GFX's forums, and I'm sure you'll find more.

    Goldenavatar, I'm pretty sure 'stoph was commenting on his own post, not yours.
