New project - Monkey lizard!

It would be really cool if this could sit on your shoulder and have an mp3 player with prerecorded sounds and possibly an animatronic jaw and head movement.

a few wip pics. Got some taxidermy eyes to play around with and made/ cloned some claws. Been working on building up the arms and legs and finishing on the body

annnd have made a bit more progress with the head. I've got the basic shapes in place and am playing around with them till they look right.

I'm going to reposition the beak and after widening the top of the mouth I think its not ridged enough. the eyes need more filling and I'm going to make a small indent so they can hold a taxidermy eye.

I'm asking a couple of my mates about the next and tail feathers/ fur see if anyone can come up with anything

more pics soon.

That is looking so cool, great work.

Wow, it's looking awesome!

Thanks Badges thanks Anaria I've repositioned (ok cut off and reglued) the beak and done a bit more work on the eyes. I'm completely crap with a camera so the shots I take are not terribly good I'm afraid.

hi all a few more wips. I've made a start on the lower jaw, made a tongue and have started on the joins between limbs and body.

Next step is to finish the limbs up to the right thickness and do some more detailing

This is some terrific craftsmanship. Great stuff. I really like it

Coming along very nicely. With that expression on his face...it looks like he's really trying to stare you down.
