This 11cm large hawk skull made of 3D-printed PLA is interesting for all witches, shamans, or even orcs and undead in LARP. The unpainted skull can easily be painted as desired and thus becomes a unique eyecatcher for your attire. But also as a decorative object in the camp, the raven skull makes quite an impression.

You can simply drill through the eye sockets to, for example, attach the skull to a chain or a leather strap. Due to its hardness, it is also suitable as an ornament on armor.

The skull is naturally vegan and was printed completely without animal suffering. And it is much harder than a real skull and therefore not likely to break quickly. It is available in white, black, and metallic shimmer.

Steps for painting a bone-colored skull

1. Take sandpaper of a fine grade and lightly sand the skull, especially at the back of the head on the print support surface.
2. Prime the skull with some primer, this will even out the print lines and make the paint adhere better.
3. Afterwards, prime the entire skull with a medium ochre or cream tone. (If it is not already bone colored)
4. Mix the ochre with black or brown and paint the depths of the skull such as eye and nose sockets, also paint scratches or hard edges and furrows in the skull.
5. Mix an even darker tone and go even deeper into the darkest areas.
6. Take a lighter tone than the ochre and wipe off the paint before applying it to the high points of the skull. (Drybrushing)
7. Use pure black for the deepest holes in the skull, the beak and strong furrows.
8. Add some additional details until you are satisfied with the painting.
9. After drying, apply matte or clear varnish depending on the desired look, spray or paint the skull completely. This seals the paint and the skull is ready for use in LARP.
