Artist's Comments

Second shot, for better display of the gecko's whole body.

And yes, the ENTIRE gecko is chainmaille, plus a smidge of wire for creative posing.

Those are really cool animals! The closest thing I ever made to something like that was a flower I made for a girlfriend, which I gave to her, just before she broke up with me :P

Still need to get pictures of that from her! Turned out really well, no extra wire for positioning or anything.

That's really cool! ^_^
I love the little tounge, and the extra claws on the back of the feet are a nice detail.

What's next, dragons?

Funny you should ask that. It started out as a dragon, but as I got closer to finishing it (before I did the neck and head) I realized the proportions reminded me very strongly of a gecko, so a gecko it became.

Heh, the tongue really finished it for me. It wouldn't have half the impact if it weren't there.

I was wondering how it was standing on its own well until I read the description. Very cool man.
