Fibreglass replica fish / fish wall art recommendations
Submitted by scano on Tue, 2019-02-19 20:08
Hi everyone,
just windering if anyone one can suggest any Australian based suppliers, of fibreglass replica or taxidermy style wall mountable fish? The type that you see sometimes mounted at a fishing club, a fishing inspired pub etc.
I known you can obviously get your once in a lifetime catch done via a taxidermist. Instead I was wondering if anyone in here has purchased, or knows of a supplier, for fiberflass & wall mountable fish art?
Ive seen some awesome examples in the USA (online web pages) but the freight to get such a thing to Australia would make me bankrupt. Any suggestions of a Australian based supplier for such a product would be greatly appreciated. Looking to deck the man cave with a few examples of them.
Many thanks
scano

Im having my 42kg yellowtail king done by him at the moment and have seen his work in person.
He had just finished a nice dogtooth tuna when I dropped my fish off. He keeps the moulds so can do replicas if people want.
not to many quality companies to choose from in Oz.

Jez got rid of all his moulds when he left exmouth a few years ago.
Does anyone know where the love of god goes, when the waves turn the minutes to hours?

Slightly off topic, but check out Mick Molnar Marine Art on Facebook.
Hand carved wood and hand painted, I think they look awesome.
