Hey Grafton,

Nice presentation of these little beauties, and a very useful one at that! I like the habitat ... nicely understated, and I love the thorn branches! The mounts are right on the mark ... very nice work! Congrats!

John.

"Peace is that brief glorious moment in history when everybody stands around reloading" - Thomas Jefferson

Every morning the Zebra wakes up knowing it must outrun the fastest Lion if it wants to stay alive. Every morning the Lion wakes up knowing it must outrun the slowest Zebra or it will starve. It makes no difference if you are a Zebra or a Lion; when the Sun comes up in Africa, you must wake up running......

"If you're being chased by a Lion, you don't have to be faster than the Lion, you just have to be faster than the person next to you."

Thanks, Donner. They were both commercially available forms that I altered. The top one was a wall pedestal form that I made into a pedestal form. The bottom one was a standard shoulder form that I made into a pedestal form.
