This is him on location...



This is him after skinning. He has his head, you just can't see it.

Yep, it's a tiny muskrat in a 220.

I'm not having it mounted. Just figured it's not worth any money so I'll skin it the way I want it to be skinned. Tail on, feet on, fleshing him was fun!

Took me forever to get the tail, it'll be a lot easier next time.

Fur wasn't too bad.

Congrats on your first, and he's a biggun at that. I'd rather see a long haired kid trapping than a short haired kid playing video games.Be yourself bud, keep stacking them up
