I recently saw photos of a taxidermist's work on an iguana, for which she'd wrapped the body, poured over polyurethane foam, then sculpted. I'd...
Ooh, this is fascinating. I've been in a few local maker labs and worked with some 3D graphics artists, but am new enough to taxidermy that I...
I think offering to sell casts of the claws along with the skin was a good move. Tbh if the taxidermist had to carve based off photo reference it...
wow wow WOW. I'd give a limb for one of those, but I'm sure it's out of reach for me. If you absolutely must keep the claws for skeleton...

Exactly! The product FAQ was very clear that 'baking soda may be substituted for pure sodium bicarbonate if you double the quantity.' That's......
Would SO appreciate a clue here- thanks in advance! I'm a newbie and used Krowtan on a batch of skins, everything went over fine. The directions...
First time using krowtann instead of a brush-on. Baby goats have been submerged 4 days (plenty according to the directions). They look white and...
Seems I lost my whole freezer full during Ida, so here I am re-stocking ;) Less interested in game critters and more in offbeat/domestic things,...
Cool, I’ll message you. Price depends on the specimen quality, color etc.
