Although the cat looks small in this pic, its your average size moggie & infact the rabbits are quite sizable...!
The top 3 are furry hoppy critters...left is the fur of a milky doe, a bit on the thin side & a bit skanky aa they use all their energy into producing milk...but all in all pretty reasonable result considering.
On the right is a Port Adelaide Hare--a mate ran iver it at 1am one morning & rang me--it squeezed ok & appeared in tact so he bought it over & i dressed it out.
Its the first hare ive done & its pretty thin...you can see the holes ive put in it while fleshing.
Given how thin it is, its turned out pretty soft & supple.
The cat is a really great fur...!! Although ive put too much oil on it so i need to rectify that somehow.
The white one is a domestic bunny...
A mate helps out an old Italian couple that breed their own rabbits for food.
When he told me they asked him to slaughter them i kicked up a fuss about getting there to skin them out...
My fuss worked...!!
The fur is amazing & the leather is so supple its unbelievable...
The man who knows everything, doesnt really know everything...he's just stopped learning...
