I chose metallic beige for the Ocelot griffin's eyes. It looks pretty.

Are you a Watcher for my stock site? [link] I'm always prowling for oddities, and I'm likely to post more soon. Just got a boatload of snake bones cleaned that I'm trying to sort into order....

OH
Gad, how do you figure out where snake bones go?
I have a capybara skeleton with all the carpals and tarsals mixed together in a bag. Argh. I haven't even attempted to reassemble that one.

Usually, when I articulate a snake or other jumbled spine collection, I get some stiff wire and just start stringing bones on it. That way you can see the differences right way from one bone to the next. I have to rearrange a lot, but eventually, I get get pretty close to the right progression. To do any better, I'd have to break out the micrometer and start taking extremely fine measurements. That's too tedious when "good enough" will do. And good enough, is fine for small bones.

On a side note, I think you would really enjoy this artist's page: [link] I am utterly blown away by what he's achieved and how he did it, especially since I've dreamed of doing it myself.

We have a good friend that worked on stuff for many of the big "effects" movies(this was in in the old days when things were real)
-These mechanical wings remind me of the mechanical wings from "a Date with an Angel" that our friend worked on! The hardest part was finding a way to make big fake feathers that look real.

Those are really nice wings!
