Scott Middlehurst has been here before with this symbolic illustration, and now he's back with a diverse set of new skulls in all different mediums.
Scott knows how to keep his creativity flowing by switching up his game(love the hobo nickel). He's a prime example of how even one person can do so many different works of the same subject. It's almost like some kind of theme for a skull art blog I know of....... Thanks again, Scott!

Tiny Skull Carvings
Save your pennies so that you might have a chance to trade them in for a nickel's worth of awesomeness from Mark Knoll. Mark carves skulls, by hand, out of cow bone, antlers, wood, and even Indian head hobo skull nickels. These tiny carvings are impressive to say the least.
You must have an eye for detail when you're able to create such miniscule works of art. That or a really good set of glasses. Mark has been here before, and now he's back with an Etsy store in hand so you can get a nickel of your own. Thanks again for sharing the great work, Mark!

Carved Coconut Skull
Scott Middlehurst carved a coconut "into a skull using my Dremel tool and some diamond points".
I love the rawness of this carved skull. That's probably from the wood grain of a coconut. That has to be a difficult and unpredictable wood to work with. The skull reminds me of a tribal mask. It also reminds me of "what if" stories related to being stranded on a deserted island. Surely, I would need to do something creative while waiting for rescue. Perhaps it would be making a skull out of a coconut...though without a Dremel to help.

Aluminum Gear Shifter Skull
A real life metal head graces our site today courtesy of Tom Powell of Ormond Beach. This gear shifter knob is made of 7075 aluminum alloy and is completely carved by knife and hand.
Sinister and shiny, this badass mofo is looking for a thrill and just like Ricky Bobby, he wants to go fast! Thanks for the great submission, Tom!
