Default Skins...

...not as in the TV show, but as in a collection of skin bits that I have saved. Pretty sad I know, but some of them are quite pretty and cool.

I wanted to upload these to my site, but as Freewebs is being a butt I thought I would post them here first:

Timon lepidus, Jewelled Lacerta - male, body:

Detail:

Python regius, Royal Python - female, complete shed with eyecaps


Pogona vitticeps, Central Bearded Dragon - female, almost complete head piece:


Corucia zebrata, Monkey Tailed Skink - female, body:

Detail:


Let me know what you think!

Looks pretty interesting, you must have had great fun working on it! I did art at A-Level, I really enjoyed some of the things I worked on, but it probably wouldnt have occured to me to do something like that. Nice one!

Thanks Martin I dont really do anything to them, they are just in an old Ferrero Rocher box actually! The beardie one was pretty impressive, I couldnt believe it all came off in one piece.
