My brother and I used to have garter snakes when we were younger. Now we are both involved with off road racing. I think a unique way to re wrap our car would be a snake skin design. I really like the look of the red sided California / San Fran garter snakes. I would of course need some very high quality pictures of the sides, top, and belly of a snake as they would be blown up to fit a car. Please let me know if you have any ideas on how I could obtain such pictures.

Welcome aboard.

What sort of quality images would you need? I can produce images at 4000x3000 and have both a San Francisco and California Red-sided, although they are last year's babies so still relatively small. If you're not needing photos at a resolution higher than a good quality digital camera I'm sure there are forum members who could help you out if you tell us what you're looking for.

An off-road vehicle painted up like an infernalis would be awesome. :)

4000x3000 would be great if it was filled with the side of the snake, that works out to about 60dpi on our car, which is better than we need.
Here is roughly what I have in mind:

I would like to do the belly too.

Let me know if you can think of any other specific members who have these snakes that would be willing to send me pictures.

Thank you!
