i found my adult red claw on its back in a death curl the other day so put it in a ICU tub with warm wet tissue, he was ok the next day but didnt seem quite its self.
i checked on it this morning and unfortunatly it had died slightly annoying as ive not had it that long but i decided it would be good to preserve and mount it on a bit of wood.

this is how it came out an looks ok for a first attempt

Looks cool but will it not rot? Have you sealed it with some kind of glue?

it shouldnt rot. after searching online i removed the insides then covered with loads of hair spray but will also get hold of some clear spray on glue/lacquer to completly seal it

Yeah looks a lot more authentic. Could probably give some unaware guests a scare if they think theres a real scorpion sat there.
