Yes the mantas are a 3 d effect the mouths are open glass eyes , what I realy liked is how I blended the colors there bellys go from almost a transparent black gold to the red ,when I based the tops I used Veragated gold leaf then pagen gold then candy red so you get a realy rich gold that shimmers throught the red . the Tocan is kinda three dee effect his eye I tryed making it look like the glass eyes I use on my fish and the bill I tryed realy close to gettin it to look real & feathers on the black and white .
