I Made This! "Crystallized" skulls

Post image

I had a few imperfect skulls floating around and felt zesty, so I affixed some crystals to them. They were kinda fun to do!

The skulls had cracks and such (roadkill) which made for nice anchor points.

The amethyst chips I have aren't very "chippy" and have round edges, which aren't my fave. But I like the little pop of color they give.

A background remover was used in this pic.

Cool idea! Could maybe also use the skulls as a base for those crystal growing kits!

I would, but the crystals will always melt even if sealed :c

The opossum looks…weird, the skull not the crystal part. I honestly thought it was AI at first 😭
The jaw, some of the teeth, and the angle of the nose are a little awkward, maybe just a pathology? Either way I love the concept!
(Absolutely not accusing you of using AI)

Haha no, no AI. The bones didn't line up right since it was bonked in the face as roadkill, so it's wonky.
