2015 is a great year for snakes figurines. Not less than 5 new models, three from Schleich, two from S&N. The two last ones were sculpted by one of our honorable member Minizoo.  Applause

Three of them have already a topic on STS, here is the fourth:The S&N Red-bellied black snake (Pseudechis porphyriacus)!

This poisonous snake is native to Eastern Australia. Despite a potentially lethal venom, its bite isn’t generally fatal due to the snake usually choosing to inject little venom toxin.

This snake is glossy black on the dorsal surface and red, crimson or pink in colour on the lower sides and belly. It can reach up to two meters in length. It is ovoviviparous, and can give birth  to alive young in individual membranous sacs (between 8 and 40).

The S&N Red-bellied black snake seems to be made in two parts glued together but you only see this with an eagle eye Suspect .

And now, a few pics of the excellent S&N model Wink

I think Jason helped S&N to give a step forward in their sculpts. We love them but they are often very simple and not very prefect in terms of proportions. These snakes are all very detailed and can compete easily with snakes from other best known brands. :)
They are also very interesting species, I have them in my collection and I am eager to know which new figures and species will S&N bring next. bounce
Thanks for another fantastic walk around. cheers

Snakes are not the most easy figurines to make. they have a really simple shape so one must take care of every details to brings life to different species. No doubt Jason is a master in that art, the two snakes he made this year are among my favorites for the realism Applause

I hope he is still working for S&N and I can't wait to know about the 2016 production Wink
