Come on people it's been slow here lately....
Must mean everyone has been working hard.

So lets see you work in progress ! Whatever it might be.


Here is what I have been working on.
It's a personnel piece... There will be another bass perched on the taller branch of the driftwood which I haven't molded yet.

The bait fish were sculpted out of super sculpy  then molded and casted. They will take on a copper patina finish hopefully.

Got to put it on hold now that some muleys or coming in.

I've got a Smallie mount to do now and another one, just a little bigger, right after. Then maybe a trout and some bluegill. I've got lots of fish in the freezer for this winter to mount.

Awesome! I love threads like this, its fun to see other people working on things.

Manny the display is looking good.
Grady well done!

Man have I been busy! not just fish but everything from home improvement to other art related projects, here are a few.

1st is a personal project.
A 34" absolute beaten boot of an Atlantic salmon I caught a few years back. Talk about scuffs and scars. This fish had road rash! he had a swollen wound on his caudal peduncle with wicked tooth marks from a big King salmon.



Next is a few crappie skin mounts and a small chain pickerel.




Then I move into the non fish arena.
A handmade desktop style scale model of a Cessna 140 built to specifically match a customers actual plane.



And the last few???
Well its almost Halloween and I need to be prepared. I was running low on severed heads so I had to whip up a new batch! BUAHHAHHAHAHA
