        They work on big game, small game, exotics, African species, and other North American wildlife, with some bird and antler-only projects also available.

        You can choose from shoulder mounts, full-body mounts, European-style skull work, antler displays, rugs, and custom bases or shields.

        The studio has operated in Arizona for over 30 years, with roots back to the early 1970s and more than 40 years of hands-on wildlife experience for the lead taxidermist.

        Reviews and the business history describe Mark as an experienced, talented artist who delivers professional, realistic mounts with strong attention to detail.

        They do not list prices online and encourage you to contact the studio directly for simple, exact quotes tailored to your specific project.

        Reviews note that quality work at a good price can take time, so you should expect a careful process rather than rushed turnaround, with no specific timelines published.

        The studio also creates custom habitat bases and decorative shields, offers skull and antler-only work, and produces bear and other rugs.
