    Default Crazy Snake Man At It Again

    Hey All

    Well most of yous probably think I am snake crazy well u would be 100% correct ;-) anyway got out into the shed this morning before it got to hot in there and here are the end results. 3 Sierras and 1 Sierra Stylus all wrapped with South West Carpet python shedded skin and casted in tinted resin 3 of them anyway ;-) Green, Pink, Red and Clear all wet sanded to 1200g and finished with NP. My aim is 50 plus pens for our first ever Reptile Expo in WA in May cant wait to see the responses from the other reptile lovers when they see these awesome pens

    Thanks
    Ian

    Looking forward to seeing Orange, Red, & Dark Blue.

    When you get good (gooder) at it, maybe you can try a Sun Burst.

    That one is a bit on the yellow side, I meant more orange.

    Not all the colours on the one blank but a sun burst would be like that one going to red on the ends.

    Thumbs up

    Ian you sure have those down to a fine art! Beauttiful!!

    One thing I note with this lot is the skin pattern still shows through the shed skin.
    Not something I saw in earlier examples.

    Hey Cliff

    This is a Amber tint in the resin would have to add a heaps of the dye to make it really Orange and trust its not yellow this one is yellow ;-). Would need to experiment on the colours

    Hey Artme

    Thanks mate glad u like what u see as for the pattern it will show though mainly on Carpets, Womas, and the Adders that I have noticed but stimsons shed don't shown any pattern at all here is a pic of one of my carpets sheds next to a stimsons shed I think this will explain it better ;-) the top shed is a stimsons python the middle one is from a big carpet around 8 ft and the bottom one is from my carpet about 5 ft long the top of the neck part is the best for the pattern ;-)
