Finally got to work on a mount after having a very difficult few months ..

I felt like every time I turned around , there was either sickness or death happening…

But things have been looking better lately and I’m just now getting back into a routine of working on mounts.
I know I’m running a little behind on timelines that I have told people and I’m sorry for that .. but I do appreciate everyone being so patient and kind through it all ❤️
I’m hoping in the next few weeks , I’ll start to catch back up on timelines.

**Also , Due to an overwhelming amount of spam calls lately , I am not answering my phone to unknown numbers . If you call , please leave a message and I’ll return your call as soon as possible. **

I have a special request from a customer :

Looking for a BOBWHITE quail mount to BORROW for a funeral that is located in Appomattox tomorrow evening .
The person who passed away had a Passion for quail hunting and the family would love to have one displayed at the funeral. Unfortunately , the family does not have any mounts of their own to display.

They would like a mount that’s not very old and in good condition.

If you have a quail mount and would love to help out this family .
Please contact Robinsons funeral home or myself .

I wanted to inform my customers that on Feb. 5th, 2026, I will be having a major surgery to remove my thyroid.
Over the past few years , I have battled hyperthyroidism , also known as “Graves’ disease“.
I struggle every day with being extremely tired , short of breath, shakiness and feeling anxious.
This had affected me some, in working in the shop.

The Dr and I agreed that it is for the best to surgically remove my thyroid . This is my first ever major surgery and I’m praying all will go well.
The recovery time for this surgery is atleast 6 weeks . I can’t pickup anything over 20lbs or do any activities that are strenuous .
So for the recovery period , I will only be working on mounts.

🦌🦌As of today, (1-25-26) , I will be placing a hold on any intakes until at least mid-April. 🦌🦌

I will make another post once I am able to start accepting more work .

Complete reconstruction of a bear eye .

Somehow this bears eye was either cut out or shot . There was no top or bottom eyelid and the corner of the eye missing . About a nickel size area to fix .

Unfortunately, I forgot to get a before picture of the hide but remembered after I did it’s finish work .

The first picture is after I reconstructed the eye lids and added textured detail.

The second picture is the finished product after it’s painted .
