I have seen pictures of some European head mounts where the skull has been camo dipped. the cost was around $75. I think some of them looked pretty cool, something diferent.

[blarkey]

would like to see what that looks like

[Jim916]

not sure if we can name companies on here but go to google and search for: mount "custom dipped" and it will be the first one that comes up. I have seen it other places just don't remeber where. It sounds like they can do any camo pattern on it.

I do my own, I boil it for a while then pick everything off. Then I use some bleech to make it whiter. Kinda fun.

Many stores sell the kits with the peroxide and other needed material to do this yourself.

It's easy to do yourself, if you have the stomach...It isn't really that bad but it can stink a little.

I use peroxide instead of bleach as bleach can harm the skull, making it chalky. Done about 10-12 in the past years.

There is a woman named Storm Amacker in Saint Paul who does a very professional job with this. I believe her business provides skeletons to medical schools and other scientific programs who study anatomy. She has done 3 of my bucks and I have been very satisfied. It takes a full year.

wow, it takes me about half a day. i use onion soup broth when I boil the skull. smells ok then I've only done 8 but I like them.
