TaxidermyXTaxidermist in New Brighton, Pennsylvania
Lane's Wildlife Images, LLCTaxidermy Studio is a taxidermy studio located in New Brighton, Pennsylvania, offering full-time professional taxidermy services for a wide range of trophies.
Owner Kevin Lane runs a state- and federally-licensed studio that serves hunters and anglers and maintains a showroom with numerous mounts on display.
They operate as a full-service studio focused on North American big game, small game, birds, and fish, along with rug work and restoration.
The studio works on big game, small game, birds, fish, and other North American wildlife trophies.
They offer shoulder mounts, full-body mounts, game head mounts, bird mounts, and rugs, as well as restoration of existing trophies.
Kevin Lane has over 30 years of experience in taxidermy and is described as an avid hunter and fisherman who focuses on using current professional methods and products.
They emphasize professional-quality mounts with attention to preserving trophies and presenting them in natural, finished forms.
They do not publish a price list and ask you to call for customized pricing and estimates, and they accept Visa, MasterCard, and Discover.
They state that professional quality and reasonable completion time are priorities, but reviews report very long delays, repeated missed completion promises, and in some cases unfinished or unusable returns, and the studio has at times stopped accepting new work due to backlog.
The studio offers trophy cleaning and restoration, can turn suitable trophies into rugs, and provides detailed field care instructions to help you protect your animal before mounting.
Reviews are mixed on quality, with one person calling it a top-tier shop but others saying they never saw finished work or received specimens back in poor condition.
Customer feedback on service is largely negative, citing poor follow-through, broken promises about work progress, and lack of apology when projects were not completed.
Multiple reviews describe extremely long turnaround times ranging from roughly 20 months to five years, with some projects ultimately returned unfinished or refunded rather than mounted.
The studio is based in New Brighton, Pennsylvania, and serves hunters and anglers in the surrounding area through its showroom and appointment-only schedule.
You should call to discuss your specific trophy, confirm whether they are currently accepting new work, review pricing and timelines, and arrange an appointment before visiting.
