[Nhcoll-l] Fungi models

[Mike Rutherford]

Another option is to look at freeze drying your fungus, a museum I once worked in had some very nice specimens done this way. A bit of painting was required but they end result was very good.

Cheers,

Hi all,

We're currently trying to source a model-maker to create some (extremely) lifelike models of fungi. Either ready-made or made to order.
Does anyone have any contacts or advice for where we could source these?

Thanks in advance,

Kate
