Default Lessons learned

Well, i think that after my first overall failed attempt at a squirrel mount i have learned some very useful lessons. One of these lessons and probaly the main one is not the soak the squirrel hide in water for too long or it will deteriorate. And second, make sure to skin far enough down the squirrel that you have enough skin to make the mount look like more than a head with 2 legs sticking out.

maybe next time...
