I prob have about 18 hours in this bird...had to make several pairs of feet and several Heads to get perfect ones....then painting goes a little more in depth with blending and precise lines. Base took about 3 hours...so I had everything done like the last picture set up before I even cleaned this particular bird....but with everything pre prepped I started cleaning him at 7am and had him finished at 4
Customer bird I don’t necessary cast feet unless there is something wrong with the customers bird and I would adress that problem before mounting...nor do I set up my bodies nearly as in-depth. Most people want a flying bird on a piece of driftwood also, not elaborate habitat bases. I can mount a customer bird in about 6-8 hours
When in doubt, shoot him again!
Work like it's all up to me, but pray, like it's all up to him!
