Whoops, I forgot to post the final product.
I don't have a title for it yet, I'll have to think of it.

New work in progress

This piece began with an exercise in which you scribble at random and form an image based on the lines and shapes that form.  What came out was more or less a followup to Reptilian Brain, with some clear influence from Gastropoda.
This is about seven hours into the drawing phase, due to the scales.

About twelve hours in.  I'm not sure if I've ever seen a real lizard with that much diversity in size and shape of scales but it still has the desired effect.

Maybe eighteen hours in now.

I really like the way this leg looks now, and I wanted to document it before I change how it looks.

 Really lost count of the time, but I would estimate about twenty-three hours at this point.  Got everything picked up, now it's just a matter of making everything mesh and look like it's all part of the same mass!
