I have twice used the reproduction air sacs from McKenzie. They work great and make for a very realistic mount. You just cut away the flesh from the real sac and then insert the artificial one so it fits right under the neck. I have used them on both Greater and Lesser PCs.
Paint accordingly. Colors differ by specie.


thanks for all the help everyone
