Alligator Skull

I have become the proud owner of a beautiful alligator skull and I would like to share some images of it on the blog to spread the usefulness of this great reference item. I very much would like to thank Melissa Findley for such an amazing gift! Her father has recently taken up taxidermy and she and I have already begun to benefit from his new hobby.

I hope you can find the photos helpful! RAWR!

That is all for another exciting Wednesday on the blog, see you back here on Friday! Until then...

      Owning skulls does not make you a weirdo... it's what you do with them! :P

    Hi Chris, great blog!

    Skulls and bones are fantastic to sketch from. They have a wonderful patina and graceful lines. Also, for folks that want to sketch more skulls and such, most natural history museums will be more than happy to give artists access to their storage if you ask!
