Awesome talent you have. Thanks! I agree rvsask, if they are cast off of a fresh plump fish, they look more lifelike than a skin mount that has had shrinkage in the fleshy parts.

Very professional …looks Awsome !! …..! Not like some mounts I’ve seen ..where the paint looked like a 4 year old did it.

GREAT JOB! 45 years ago I was doing taxidermy... mostly fish and small mammals, ducks and other birds. Of course at that time it was all skin mounts, with wood wool, fish fill and clay. The paint job is excellent and where 85 % of the work is.

Here is a couple of ducks I did that have remained about half intact... How do you recommend cleaning the feathers? They have a lot of dust on them. Garry-

Thanks, Gentleman. Gary, this sounds stupid, but a fresh piece of bread will take the dust off and leave the feathers looking nice.
