My Bio
I am a self taught taxidermist. I work only ethically sourced animals. These are generally animals I find myself dead of natural causes (cat kills, road kill, etc) or get from other people, again dead from natural causes or vintage at a minimum. No animals were intentionally killed for my work, nor do I support fur farming, hunting or trapping in any way, excepting food hunting as a way to get away from factory farmed meat. The pelts I use would otherwise be left to rot. I prefer preserving them so others can admire natures beauty then to leaving them to decay. You are entitled to your opinion but please keep it polite.

Gender: XX
Orientation: I likes me the ladies.. mostly
Age: Over 20 and under 100 XD

Commissions: Ask

Anything else interesting XD

Any mounts or pelts can be in need of repair so long as I know up front. I've repaired damaged stuff before and am fine with doing so. I prefer things are road kill or vintage. At a minimum I ask it have passed through multiple hands, excluding animals killed by farmers or subsistence hunters.

Tools of the Trade
Exacto blades, sewing supplies and fur :p
Other Interests
Taxidermy, wildlife, nature
So I was tagged to answer some questions so here goes XD 1. What was the first "dead thing" you ever owned? I've collected feathers as long as I can remember, but the first actual dead thing was a model seal covered in real seal fur and some rabbit pelts. Alas the seal was lost in a flood and the pelts in a move... but I've certainly collected enough to make up for their loss! However I DO very much miss my seal. Sea fur feels... amazing. I would pat my seal for hours! 2. What's your favourite piece in your collection of skulls, pelts, etc.? Oh cripes, I dunno if I can pick a favorite! XD I think as far as taxidermy goes, my squirrel is m

YO
we haven't talked in a while ;3;
how are youuuu?
Busy!!! Omg I need to try catch you on Skype and catch up.
I have a question...Where do you keep all your taxidermy?
In my house? XD right now most of its stored in water proof bins since I'm moving a lot right now and don't want it being damaged. Stuff that doesn't require massive permits to sell off I sell on etsy.
Hey, I saw you were searching for an Euro Jay ;)
I have one for sale :)

Interested?
Very! Alas it's a little out of my price range right now. Darn exchange rates! D: If I get some cash though I'm definitely interested.
