Completion or turnaround ,same thing. Most studios have a turnaround of 1year max. Some others go to 2 or yrs. The studios that offer 3month turnaround own their own tannery and thats good for them but in the real world , it takes time for the tanners to do their job, the faster they do their job, the more screw ups that they do, so I like them to take their sweet old time and most of the time,all ends well. Next the taxidermist must work all the items into a schedule,( if they only have one or two clients, then you will have your trophy in no time but most studios have hundreds of trophies to do)one doesn’t just grab a tanned skin and goes to work on it. They must be sweated for a day or more . And then the parts must be ordered or made and that takes time. Then the form must to altered to fit the skin and the wishes of the clients. For birds, fish, reptiles one puts them up to dry and then will be finished when they are worked into the schedule. Here at Capp’s Taxidermy Studio LLC completion time is up to 1 yr max(most all done within 8 mounts but I say that just in case the tanners are slow) for tanned mounts, 6 to 8 months for fish, birds, etc.. It takes time to create art so be patience and you will be very satisfied . If you are good than you are always busy and that great job security……
