Scorpion advice???

[el_d]

Hello Casters,
Last night I happen to look up and saw a small scorpion on my ceiling. I put it in a jar and dumped it into jar of alcohol. So now I got a vey nice, small, scorpion.
So now how would I go about casting the scorpion on a tube? I was thinking of CA glueing it to the painted tube and casting as normal but dont know if I need to dry the scorpion or what about the inside goo??

Any suggestions would be appreciated......

Maybe John could give you some advice.

I did a scorpion a couple of years ago before it was popular here. I dispatched mine in alcohol and let it sit in the alcohol until it evaporated. I then put the scorp between a couple of paper towels and let it sit until dry. I then CA'd it to a painted tube and cast away. Came out good but not as artistic as the ones that Johnspensandmore makes.
