tiny Tiny skulls

I think I tend to do these blog posts in huge shoves! Today the first are going to be several pictures of tiny tiny skulls I made for my project. Lately I've been thinking about making them tiny automata bodies made of wire and string to dance with.

Alas, my work is littered with poorly concealed puns.
This is my fossil museum housed in an old M&S biscuit tin. The specimens range from the formidably sized Happy Warthog to the Incredibly Tiny Mouse.
This is, I think, a disease-ridden camel skull

This was a very cheerful warthog!
A Bear (ursula minor. very very minor)
I think this is a Slightly Larger Mouse, in 3D (also known as real life) he's about half the size of a tuppence
This is the skull of particularly fierce Tyrannosaurus Rex.

All of these skulls are made from Fimo clay and as you can see they are tiddly.
