Assuming your cape is tanned, the steps in the process would be something like this. Test fit, prep form, do final prep of cape thinning and sewing holes, insert earliners or bondo ears, prep form for ear base depending on how you do ears, if open mouth install jaw set and artificial nose if applicable, set eyes,  do clay work, apply hide paste, slide cape onto form, line up ears, tuck eyes, lips and nose, adjust cape to hair patterns, line up whiskers, do detail work, fluff and brush out hair with blow dryer and groom, allow to dry tweeking every day, do final grooming, final painting and detail work. That is a very basic ste by step of the process.  The techniques of the process vary greatly with each taxidermist having his or her preferences.  The steps may vary as welll depending on the technique used.  Do some reading in the archives, on the tutorial page, watch some videos (lots of free ones on youtube) or invest a few bucks on tutorial a DVD from one of the suppliers. The process is one thing, but if you're looking for technique that's a long and in depth and at times contradictory theme.

Hell, I would be way more concerned about only have $120.00 in my checking account. Better raise those prices. Lol

Which has nothing to do with UPS's prices and the fact that the shipping was more than the order.

I had no idea. It's been a few years since I used one of their replicas. Most of the ones I have used over the years were pretty good quality and hopefully they retain the quality after the transition.

Contact Bob Wendt (in the for sale section).  He almost always has these skins, and he has an extremely good reputation.  I have bought from him in the past.
