I also looked at different types of lizards for inspiration
for my design, in particular I found flap necked chameleon and knight anole
lizards really interesting. I wanted to go for a green look and both these
lizards have bright green scales just like I would like my design to have. The Flap
Necked Chameleon is native to Sub-Saharan regions south of the Sahara Desert in
Africa. They are normally yellow or green. An interesting fact I found about
Chameleons while doing some research is that Chameleons’ pointed eyes have
fused eyelids, leaving just a pinhole to see. When first thinking about my
design I thought I was going to get some contact lenses to add to the affect
but after looking at and researching chameleons I felt that they had quite
human like eyes as they were round so decided to not use the contacts.

The knight anole lizard is native to Cuba but are now also
found in southern Florida. Anolis equestris is a lizard (reptile) member of the
Polychrotidae family. They're also known as Cuban Knight Anoles. The body is
covered with small granular scales with a yellow or white stripe under the eye
and over the shoulder. They are bright green in color, which can change to a
dull grayish-brown.
