      I have no idea, sorry, I’m just showing start to finish how to tan with McKenzie products. Feel free to try some dish soap if you want. Someone else on here said we could use tree bark and eggs to tan, so I suppose this video was a waste of time 🤣

    Really really really enjoying your content ! Just wanted to say thank you for providing a space where we can learn in our own setting and at our own pace ! As a visual learner and someone who sees how there are people who kind of gate keep and/or take advantage of others who are just wanting to learn , I feel very fortunate and grateful to have found your content ! There is plenty room and work for anyone with the passion and dedication to learning this craft to be a part of this industry and to learn from others who are also passionate and willing to share the knowledge! The competitive mindset of some is unnecessary and in my opinion is also a huge factor in why this industry has historically been dominated by men . The industry really needs more women like you who are teaching for the sake of keeping these traditions alive ,not just for profit or to prove yourself 🙌👏🫶

    Glad there are still some real talented taxidermist out there like Amy 👍 ha ha , it seems like some supply companies are trying to make taxidermy same as rap music . No talent necessary .It takes all of the fun out of being an artist . Fake everything, just slip the skin on like a sock and hang it on the wall ....No real artist ability necessary ! Just kidding , it's really not that bad 😱🫣😁
