This is a door knocker I made for the house in Vienna. I hadn’t sculpted anything in a while and thought it would be easier (and cheaper) than trying to find one like this in a store or online. I found most of the supplies at Michaels, with a few nuts and bolts coming from Home Depot.

I really think it came out great. I think if I did it again I might get the dimensions of the skull a little more exact, find a more decorative backing plaque and a better knocker than a U-bolt with washers and nuts epoxied onto it. But it has been working well for about a year now.

Later!
