[QUOTE="x_raphael_xx, post: 230202, member: 37624"] I actually have a video due to go live on wednesday showing how I did one of mine :D My youtube is @thezooroom. Basically, you need to clean out the abodomen, turn him onto his back, make as small a slit as possible & use q-tips to clean out the gunk. Then roll up tiny balls of tissue paper and restuff the butt (smaller bits of paper gets a better shape than big balls of paper. Then pin him into a nice position, and pop him in a tub with silica beads to dry him out. After a while (he will still be a little smelly) the silica beads will dry out any left over goo, and he'll be good to frame. You can just pin & stick him in a silica tub without stuffing the abdomen, but the silica will absorb all the moisture and his butt will shrivel [/QUOTE]
