Taxidermy

Become my virtual apprentice on Patreon and learn Taxidermy with me from your home

Subscription to my Patreon is donation based with a minimum $5 required to sign up.  There you will find access to a library of taxidermy lesson plans taught by me. I cover bird, snake, rat, rabbit and even goat taxidermy. There are over 50 video lessons covering all aspects of taxidermy art from embalming to insect pinning and bone cleaning as well as more advanced techniques like tanning hides into leather and full skeletal articulation. I make myself available to my Patreon subscribers 7 days a week to answer taxidermy questions and even offer one-on-one zoom lessons and taxidermy sessions.
