Yessir, I use lake county almost exclusively, their quality is incredible. You can make them all look nice depending on the amount of carving and sculpting you are willing to do to it but I prefer to have a quality form to start with, can put more time and effort into paint/finishing that way! I have a new video coming out soon and I used a starfish reproduction. I recommend lake county but starfish is my second choice, but if I need something fast I’ll go through McKenzie or Matuska, I look at it like this, the more time they spend making it look good the less time you’ll have to spend making it look good!

@@A-MTaxidermyStudio solid point man thanks , love the videos. Helping me learn a lot

@@Bleas128 glad to hear it man! I’m glad you’re picking up some information through my rambling lol

I use steel wool to knock down the high spots and give it more definition and depth, and I clear between every coat just so when I steel wool the next coat the layer before that doesn’t get scrubbed away with it

Thank you! Glad you stopped by the channel! Got a new one coming out next week I hope!

Thank you! It’s a dream of mine!

NCH, so far it’s been nothing but problems, that’s what Nate uses too and I’m about to switch over to it

I’m excited to post it! 2 weeks in the making so I’m ready for yall to see it!

Thank you! Never fails to put a smile on my face to see you in the comments! Thanks for watching man! Get out there and get that trophy so we can get your fish on the channel!!!

Glad you like it man! Got a new one coming out tomorrow!

I’m about to start taking customer fish and will be charging $23 an inch

When I get that trophy you’re going to get the job!

@@forgboi awesome man! Can’t wait, just finished up the next video, gotta edit it and it’ll be up in a few days!

Thank you! Glad to see you back!

At least Ive paid nearly $300 on it total so far 🙃

Thank you! Glad you enjoyed! Definitely the closest I’ve been to pulling my hair while working on a fish 😂

@@A-MTaxidermyStudio i can only imagine

You’re gonna love the next video then! Thank you for the comment and thanks for watching!

Thank you! Won’t be the next video but the one after that! Got some really neat stuff lined up!

It’s about half painted and looking great so far! One more video from the backlog then it’ll be next up!

@@A-MTaxidermyStudiomega hype also it be cool if you scheduled it for a certain time so people would know when it comes out cause it shows up on the recommended page

I’ll try to be more consistent with uploads for sure! My laptop is a dinosaur so editing takes a little longer on some! Thanks for the feedback! I’ll make a post about when and what time the next video drops mid week!

Thank you! It was a blast “ruining” a pristine form! And yes we do, am_taxidermystudio

@@A-MTaxidermyStudio followed

Thank you! It’s been a pleasure going down this road and adding to the enjoyment of taxidermy because of people like you!

Thank you! It was a fun one to work on with all the “gnarliness” glad you enjoyed!

Good lord, didn’t even realize it was you max 😂 either way, glad you enjoyed man! Can’t wait for my sicker, I’ll give you a shout out and we’re in the process of getting your shirt customized

This is a replica mount so it’s made of fiberglass resin, skin mounts are something I would definitely like to show one of these days but these first few videos will all be replicas, this one in particular is a Starfish Replica but my go to company to order from is Lake County Replicas. We have a new video coming out today with a Lake County Replica

@@A-MTaxidermyStudio awesome. Thanks 🤟🇨🇦

Thanks for the sub! 7 more videos ready to be filmed soon!

Just you being here is more than I could ask of you! Thank you so much! There’ll be another video next week and I hope to see you there as well!

@@A-MTaxidermyStudio will be there

Thank you! Glad you enjoyed, there’s more videos to come! Hope you’ll stick around to see them too!

It comes with practice, you remember when Nate didn't talk at all in his videos? Give the man some time

I apologize for my lack of KZbin knowledge! It will get better as time goes on, these are “long format videos” so they drag on a little bit, hopefully you enjoyed still and we’ll see you back here!

​​@@A-MTaxidermyStudiohappy to be here to learn and watch you blossom & grow, Brother. You'll find your groove in front of the camera.. you're doing great. Keep it up. Looks Awesome. Hello to the Wife/cameraman 👋🤟🇨🇦

Same, will watch after his video. Can't wait. Here for the early "Like"

Appreciate the view! Glad you enjoyed! More in the future to come!
