flying fox / bat

submission from makeupbylexxxibelle:

My bat tattoo. For a friend of mine that passed of cancer. He has this and I asked if I could get it for him right before he passed. He said as long at you’re serious about bats and as long as you make it your own.

This is a small scale sculpture from a series I’ve made featuring flying foxes/bats. The wings have fine wire through the fingers and arms allowing me to variously pose them, while the wing leather itself is tissue paper. In this sculpture the bats are modelled after the Australian species, the Grey Headed Flying Fox.

Very neat

A picture I took during my field season this past summer; it’s a Myotis septentrionalis. Sucha cutie. :)
