Here are some of my projects. A rabbit and two squirrels that I shot skinned and cured. I also skinned out the head on my rabbit. You might be able to see it in the picture. I am interested in Taxidermist work, so this is good for me to practice on. I would like to do Taxidermy for a living. :) I may have a deer hide to work on soon too. So if anyone has advise on tanning a deer hide please comment. Although I'm going to keep the hair on it so yeah, I need some advise. :D
Here is my deer hide, I am still working on it. It is fleshed, soaked, and salted, but I am still working on the softening. :D It's taking me a long time.......Mostly because I haven't been working on it very much..........Don't tell anyone.
And now I will show you all some of my art.

I tanned some rabbit hides normally with the hair on and it stayed on.But i tanned a beaver hide and left it in my tanning solution longer than necisary and little patches of hair came off weather that's the reason or not. (You never stop learning)E
ReplyDeleteThat's too bad some of the hair came off. Yep you never stop learning. I should be getting a deer hide tomorrow, so if you have any hair on tanning tips then just tell me. :)
