Faster doesn’t equate to better, Now does it?
Here’s a “fast” mount and cheap and a “slow” mount and more expensive which one would you choose?

“Life is what happens when you’re busy making other plans”
That being said, I’ve had many trials and tribulations over the last several years. If I croaked, nobody would get anything.
I went eight months without any income and was unable to work due to a severe allergic reaction that almost killed me. January of this year my wife and I contracted bacterial pneumonia and I was very sick for three months.
Are these excuses? I don’t think so. It’s just a reality of life. Apparently some people don’t ever have challenges in life.
I’m not a part time Fish replica artist nor am I a Taxidermist, I’ve been making a living at this for 49 years and I’ve had nothing but happy customers until recently. Working From behind is extremely stressful.
I’ve always taken great pride in my customer service but ever since Covid people seem to fly off the handle pretty easily.
I’m behind, but I will deliver. If I was a scammer it would be all over the Internet now wouldn’t it?
That being said, I don’t understand why people air their dirty laundry on the Internet. Is it just to get attention?
If I posted half of the messages, the original poster sent me via text You would scratch your head.
Demanding 50% discount for waiting?
They’re not ordering a plastic fish off the shelf you are ordering a commission which means the whole process is very intensive and detailed commissioning a fish to be mounted as different than buying one from a website.
Like I always say cheap/ bad is not good and good is not cheap.
Here are two pictures one is fast and less expensive and the other is slower and more expensive which one would you choose?

Nice work!!

If I was into to have my fish or game mounted I would def find a healthier taxidermist. It would suck to have your heart set on a mount of a once in the the life time catch or kill and your guy croaks.

We all have problems and issues and if someone takes money to do a job they should arrange for it to get done by someone else or refund all the deposits.
You basically tried to flip the blame by saying, “Life is what happens when you’re busy making other plans”

Good luck and I hope all the customers receive their mounts that they paid deposits prior to any work being completed.

Full Draw has done the last couple mounts for me, but when I drove through Rising Star a month or so ago there was a for sale sign on the building. Did they move again?
