Here is one from today, a Prairie Rattlesnake on a Rhodium Jr Retro Roller Ball. Cast in Silmar 41Polyester Resin in a resin saver mold, wet sanded to 1000 then polished with Novus Plastic Polish.
Comments welcome, thanks for looking.

me either, I was a little worried too! the prairie rattler is dark enough for the black and silver, I like it! would not try it with a greener skin!

Jon the skins I got are all pretty uniform in color and size, My problem with I finally figured out how to do was keeping the scales going the right direction and which way to roll it onto the tube, Dons tutorial is a godsend. I need to skin the Copper head in my freezer, since I go get stints next Wednesday I'll have a couple days off to play as long as I play easy. and the snake doesn't thaw out and comeback to life

Great pen! I'm really impressed how you can make that all "from scratch" so to speak. Can't wait to see how the copperhead comes out.

Looks really classy on the Retro.
