This was very interesting. Antonio, I commend you on your well thought out assignments! Each one does build on all the previous ones. With each assignment I have felt myself learn something and improve. On this one, aside from the obvious anatomy study, I would say “I learned a little more about what it might feel like to be a lizard-bird.” Put that quote in the advertisements without any context, haha.

I really struggled with this one. I couldn't find any good references for lizard anatomy (crocodile specifically). I ended up trying to use human attachment points. I think I need some more joint/anatomy knowledge before I can comfortably tackle this. I might double back to this after the rest of the course. Thanks for the interesting assignment.
