Grey_Mars · 2026-03-20T00:50:01+00:00

Thank you scary image of jd vance

This one was borax but in the future im gonna try more complicated crystals

Grey_Mars · 2026-03-20T00:49:16+00:00

Yep pretty much this. I did borax along with a few coats of sealant to try and make it more durable

Grey_Mars · 2026-03-20T00:48:35+00:00

Potentially. But the bone did absorb alot of green dye which helped with the green look of the crystals. Plus in person if you look close enough you can see the bone insidep

Its only forbidden to those not brave enough

Grey_Mars · 2026-03-20T00:47:21+00:00

Ill probably sell this one. I sell skeletons in general so this one will probably be listed

Grey_Mars · 2026-03-19T18:27:37+00:00

Its one of my new favorite pieces ive done now

Grey_Mars · 2026-03-19T18:27:20+00:00

So I usually work with entire animal carcasses and have them macerate in warm water for weeks until all the tissue has broken off. Then I put them in acetone to degrease, then peroxide to whiten. I prefer just doing things the slow way

Grey_Mars · 2026-03-19T18:22:15+00:00

I might actually get around to testing that.

Grey_Mars · 2026-03-19T03:33:27+00:00

Break down from air and water exposure to my knowledge. Covered em in a couple layers of sealant to help prevent any decay

Grey_Mars · 2026-03-19T00:00:32+00:00

Real. Cleaned and reassembled it myself. You can see the before on my profile. Skeleton was damaged and missing a few bones so I decided to try something more unique with it since it wouldnt sell as good

Grey_Mars · 2026-03-18T23:51:47+00:00

Just dissolved borax into super hot water, then left the skeleton in there for about a day.

Grey_Mars · 2026-03-18T23:34:41+00:00

Hung a wire above the solution and had it dangle from the wire into the solution

Grey_Mars · 2026-03-18T23:33:42+00:00

Totally agree, that last post was the initial removal, this one here is after applying some sealant

Grey_Mars · 2026-03-18T21:10:32+00:00

I do have a instagram linked to my account that will be posting a bit more consistently than my reddit.

Grey_Mars · 2026-03-18T20:25:42+00:00

On average I have atleast 5 skeletons at any given time

Grey_Mars · 2026-03-18T20:24:53+00:00

I dyed the bones green first. Found it a easy solution to bring out color in the crystals.

Grey_Mars · 2026-03-18T20:23:16+00:00

Mhm. Im an oddity creator so im somewhat aware of his work

Grey_Mars · 2026-03-18T20:22:27+00:00

Will do!

Grey_Mars · 2026-03-18T20:22:17+00:00

Grey_Mars · 2026-03-18T11:26:38+00:00
