Skeletal Creations

Hey everyone. I've noticed that there is a ton of interest in this so I am putting it all on the line here. I have been cleaning animal skeletons for at least 10 years now. Specifically fish in the past 5 years, but I can do any sized animal. If you are interest in having a museum style skeletal articulation for a centerpiece for discussion or just for your trophy room. PM me for a qoute, but generally the prices listed below will apply. I have a unique interest in fish anatomy, especially catfish. If you are wanting a custom skeleton done, of any species so long as it's not endangered and you reside in the USA, or can get the proper permits through CITES to ship to me, and vice versa let me know. If you have more than one of the species you are shipping please ship multiple specimens as you will be given a discount for sending the extras to me. You can also get a discount if you have a species that I need for my personal collection which currently includes over 200 species with about 60 species of fish.

As previously stated you can get specia discounts for species that I don't aready have. Also willing to consider trades for skeletal mounts for live catfish depending on species. Terms are 50% up front and 50% upon completion and your satisfaction after you recieve it. I ask %50 up front to pay for materials to do your mount.

I'll post some pics up later, but if you want you can check out my thread in the catfish section titled catfish anatomy.

Here's a few pics for now I'll add more later. Some are works in progress, but you can tell which ones are completed.

Not trying to compete with anyone. His artwork is great, but I would like to offer my services so that anyone who wants something cool can get it. Especially if you'd rather get a mount like this rather than getting it taxidermy normally.
