Selecting the Right Specimen for Preservation
Every successful taxidermy project begins with selecting the right specimen. Proper handling and storage ensure that the animal maintains its quality for the mounting process. Krause’s team guides clients on preservation techniques to keep their specimens in pristine condition.
Preparing the Specimen for Taxidermy
Preparation requires precision and care. Skilled taxidermists carefully remove the skin, clean it, and tan it to prevent decay. This essential step preserves the animal’s natural beauty while creating a durable foundation for the mounting process.
The Art of Taxidermy: Crafting the Perfect Mount
Every mount starts with a custom form, meticulously shaped to match the animal’s anatomy. Krause’s team uses reference photos and measurements to achieve accuracy. The form serves as the core, ensuring the specimen retains its lifelike proportions.
Detailing Brings the Mount to Life
Details make the difference between a good mount and a masterpiece. Taxidermists expertly position glass eyes, groom fur, and recreate natural poses to capture the animal’s essence. Each piece reflects the artistry and dedication Krause’s Taxidermy Studio is known for.
