My Animal!

My animal for transformation and anatomy is the sea lamprey (Petromyzon marinus).



It is a parasitic lamprey*. The life cycle of sea lamprey is anadromous. Sea lamprey lives in lakes and rivers . It's size can be up to 33 inches and can weight up to 2¼ pounds. It's color varies. Small specimen are white below and uniformly colored above. Large specimens are usually colored olive.

*Lampreys are a family of jawless fish wich characterized them by a toothed funnel-like sucking mouth.

                                        












I can't think how i will transform my self-portrait into that creature. It will be a challenge!

  6. nasty looking critter, Nastos! At last - some Unit 1 stuff - but that's not to suggest that it's not been interesting to see your technical accomplishments. Time to get lots and lots and lots of drawing on here - remember the title and purpose of the brief - Anatomy! And, while I appreciate that you might struggle with the reviews, get them posted and get some feedback.
