where do you buy the materials, wood, little screw thing at the top, polish (idk if you use any), and the paints? (also what kind of paint)

squaremonkey1 In reply to Margraveart [2010-10-20 00:59:10 +0000 UTC]

I buy my wood from TreelineUSA in Provo,Utah.The little brass hook at the top at Lowe's or Home Depot and I usually use ceramacoat acrylics at michael's and usually do the paint in a light wash,the consistancy of watercolors so the woodgrain shows through.I hope this helps give me a holler if you have anymore questions.

He's awesome! ....and as ugly as nationally televised Friday night prayers in Iran.
...and just a hint...but ummm ... Older men should try and stay away from terms like "shrunken head" just so you don't invite unnecessary subconscious depression. You prolly want to avoid all words that denote or represent "loss of head" ...like "guillotine" or "decapitation"
..that way you stay cheerier and get more creative stuff done....
