While the real customizers of this forum are taking a well deserved rest, I decided to pretend to be one, even if for a moment It's my first try, please be kind LOL I got this Iguana from eBay and it had major scratches on its head as well as ink written numbers. Couldn't get a replacement so I thought I could practice on it. I love shimmery things and my favorite LPS is that lovely green shimmery snake in the basket. This guy isn't finished and needs more coats and fine details, but I just wanted to share. Thanks for looking!! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 7/1/11 Here is the final result: very close to the actual color (metallics are hard to capture)

Thanks Only now looking at the pic I realize how unfinished the iguana looks I already added more coats so it looks way better!! lol I would like some suggestions as to what colors to use on the iguana's scales. I see it more as a little cute dragon than iguana. I'm not happy with the current colors at all, but love the base color which is Metallic Peridot. Any suggestions? The color I have in possession: all metallic: plum bright red blue sapphire blue pearl blue topaz periwinkle (used on the iguana) copper (used on the iguana) aquamarine amethyst silver Thank you in advance for all your suggestions

I thing that you should make the scales sliver but if you don't want to you don't have to
