The funny thing is, snake eyes have no expression at all. They're wide open, all the time. Snakes don't blink, as they don't have eyelids.

I remember noticing this in a Harry Potter movie, I'm not a fan of the series and don't know which movie it was (a girl I was dating was a huge fan)...but they're at the zoo and there's a huge snake behind the glass, and it blinked. I pretty much jumped up and said "Hey, snakes don't blink!" Meh, I guess that's the zoologist in me...
I guess that´s why it looks so cunning.. The eyes looks like cat eyes.
If I met a snake, it wouldn´t have time to argue with it whether it should blink or not, I´d be long gone. It´s a very sneaky thing.

Loving your handiwork... especially some of your shells with the cartoon characters... I've never done those before but would love to do Top Cat on the wing of my errrr.... Top Cat :mrgreen: Which I think would be pretty cool 8) Do you have any tips for planning & creating such characters on the inside of a lexan shell?

i would highly recomend liquid mask ... cut out the carature out and paint him first .. just becarefull of shadows that they arent too strong and overpower the cat .. the problem is you cant tell till you put the base colour on then its too late

make sure if you try it post picts :)
