Jason caught this Alligator Gar π£ππ¦ now we're making a mold β¨ #taxidermyart #alligatorgar #moldmaking #fishingreel
Itβs called a Dry Tan.
Itβs a bobcat skin I tanned myself π
Thereβs a lot to the process but I pulled it out this tumbler filled with sawdust and baffles in it. The skin is put in this while itβs still wet (or damp). Beforehand, I will let it hang from soaking wet for about 2hrs to drain off excess water. It tubles slowly to dry and keep the skin moving. If it dries without tubling it would dry hard and stiff.
The hide was still a little bit stiff. I painted on some tanning oil on the skin to let it soak in over night. Then put it back in the tumbler to make it more soft and supple.
