2 is a volcanic rock skull made with rock from Mount Vesuvius in Italy
3 is some kind of rodent skull I found in the woods at my father in law's house
4-9 were all purchased at various tattoo shows. 5, 6, 7, & 9 are actually ashtrays
10 is a dragon skull ashtray that my good friend Wayne Mosher hand made for me. When you put your roach....er, butt on it's toungue the smoke travels up through the nostril holes. Wayne is a great tattoo artist at Smokin' Guns Tattoo in Fayetteville, NC.
11 is a hand made skull that I bought on Paradise Island in the Bahamas
