What is the airbrushing for?

As you can see I know little to nothing about taxidermy lol.
it is a very long process and takes alot of work. I never knew anything about it untill I met Dave. Airbrushing is done after the mount has completely dried. We do airbrushing in the ears, nose, eyes, and mouth because the hide dries out and loses it's fleshy color. We paint those parts to make it look more "real" also we add a little bit of filler on the bumbs of the nose to give it back it's texture and then add some gloss around the mouth and nose.
