I saw this today while looking at some headlines. It's the stone martin that shut down the hard-on collider.

I would have expected for nothing to be left of it but a smear of char.

I am very sorry to say I have some OC for this thread, mostly because I do not what what the fuck I'm doing, how to skin anything, or how to mount anything. It's a miracle the hides got cured and tanned okay without the hair falling out or rotting to pieces.

So, this is stoat 1. Its missing all of its feet because I accidentally pulled them off in the skinning stage, and also accidentally cut off the chin, so I had to hack a piece off pale fur from its side of sew to the bottom of its face.

This is stoat 2. Only one of its feet got pulled off, but there was some fur slippage behind one of the ears, and the hide was really weird and hard, but I put this down to the fact it was thawed and then frozen again so many times. (This animal was the subject of a post-mortem prior to being skinned, and it was frozen for an indeterminate period of time before both events.)

To summarise: I have never taxidermied a thing in my lofe prior to these stoats and I suspect that may be the issue.

Most people need practice before they're any good at anything. Now that you've done this one you know some things you can improve on.

I still laughed at Mr. Google-eyes in that first photo.

That's what I figured. You aren't automatically good at something overnight.

It's kind of hard finding fresh dead things. Only get stoats because I'm helping with a conservation project and occasionally a nice pest specimen will come across the post-mortem table. Already decided I don't want to do rats or mice, even if I get nice ones.

Oh, not much. Just, you know, busy being a cylinder. What's up with you?

>>2310254
Let's be honest. This one's face is a little fucked up and it looks like its ears didn't quite survive the curing process, but it's coat is nice and the pose isn't too unnatural. Not actually that terrible.

Hi guise

>>2309997
There are a bunch of theories on what would happen, check out thunderf00ts video on it on youtube

That's just a wood carving right?
