Caracal skull
Hollow Calling
Finally finished this piece! It's made in acrylic and is approx. 60 x 90 cm. I think.
Anyway, it is big and bigger than I'm used to working in. Working in large scale can be so relaxing and I'm so happy with how well acrylics allow me to execute my ideas.
I sort of wanted to do something similar to my SPECTRES series and just vibe with some space, colours and skulls.
Find me and my art elsewhere!
It’s time for the great Bone Recap of 2024!!
Rodents: Nutria, American Beaver, Rat, Grey Squirrel
Mustelids (and Mephitidae): River Otter, American Badger, Striped Skunk
- skunks were once considered mustelids, and are now their own classification of Mephitidae along with stink badgers :3
Feline: Bobcat
- The only feline I got this year, sooo fragile (bleached 👎) and oily but I still love him. Very cool difference in morphology between him and my other bobcat
Marsupials: Virginia Opossums
- the left grey one was only 4-5 months old, and the skull was in complete pieces. The other two were adults but the size difference is insane?!
I also have a fourth one degreasing that’s the same size as the middle one.
Canidae (and Vulpes): Arctic Fox, Red Fox, Coyotes
- don’t buy arctic foxes, they’re fur farm byproducts. I did not know this at the time I bought her. I feel the need to say this whenever I post her so I can make more people aware
- the coyote on the right is all the way from Florida! I named him Winston and I love the staining in his sutures
Cervidae: Mule deer
- the doe was the first full animal I processed, despite the entire leg that went missing due to scavengers. I had another young doe that scavengers stole this summer. It has been a bad year for the deer
Antlers: Mule deer, Whitetail deer, Maui deer
- whitetail antler to the far left, mule, mule, mule, and another mule and Maui deer in the case
The End!
And with that, the bone collecting recap has come to an end. I feel this has been a very successful year, and now I have to move them all!!

used the mishima technique to get those fine lines for the shading
Cougar Update
The maceration is done, it was pretty quick and I'm pretty happy with how it came out, now just degreasing and whitening and this beautiful cat will be ready to go home soon
I can't wait for my favorite part, gluing the teeth in place hehe

A bob with a broken skull I decided not to assemble, but wanted to display anyway
Cat skull beginning to macerate should be my aesthetic....
