I did everything myself, except skull, and am pretty proud how it turned out.  What do you guys think? :alien:

I second wanting to know more about the skull

I did not do the skull.  I had it cleaned and whitened then the had it pewtered.  I think the guy uses paint to get it to look like that.  I had one done about 5-6 years ago and my son wanted one like it.  I really like these pewtered skulls!

I had them done by Swarthout Skullworks, which is about 5 minutes from my house.  They have a website, but not sure if they have turkey skulls pictured like ours on their site.

How do you did you do the skull? Is that paint or dip.

Had the skull done by a local guy using beetles.  When finished and cleaned, he used some sort of high quality automotive metallic/metallized paint.   He calls it pewter on his website.  I'll throw the link to his site at the bottom.
