Recieved the coolest Garter ever today!

Look what came all packed up nice today



Thanks so much Shannon, It may sound silly, but since 10 gallon tanks are only $10, I'm going to set up a fake enclosure and display him just as if it were alive.

A memorial to Magma.

Never thought one little snake could effect as many as he did.

That is sooooo awesome!! Shannon what a great job, & so nice of you!

Wayne take a picture of the set up!!! can't wait to see.

That was the nicest thing ever, Shannon. Dekay, you are so lucky. Not only to have a Forever Magma, but to have one of Shannon's creations and her as a friend. I'd kill for a snake like that.

Kinda makes me believe in the human race after all...

awe I just saw this thread !!!

anything I can do to ease pain i will do...

I really, really liked seeing Magma and I actually cried when I read that he died!!!

I am glad you like it Wayne!

Hmm Shannon,

Maybe you have a new business opportunity here? After looking at the thread about all the REALLY fake looking fake rubber snakes, it makes one wonder if all the herp (not just garter) fanatics out there might go for something like this?

[aSnakeLovinBabe]

honestly... I am already in the process of getting my studio area set up for something to that extent... I recently stocked up on 11 boxes of polymer clay... and I need some more paints that closely resemble the colors most found on snakes!

my thing is... how much do I charge for things like this? I have no idea how to price it... because I am not greedy, I dont want to charge an arm and a leg, but at the same time, I need to charge reasonable amounts to compensate for the work, time and the detail I put into them... so once I figure that all out... you will see something more
