As promised, here are the pics of my Elephant Armatura!

It is so beautiful! It is a much much softer shade than the copper and more subtle than the original armatura. It is to me...PERFECT!

The color is hard to capture. All of the images are taken without flash. The last picture I tried to zoom in on the folds to show how it reflects light differently to create different shades of the same elephant armatura.

wow! that is LOVELY! and it really is a beautiful/elegant version of the color of the elephant if you know what i mean.... and i mean that in the best sense.

please be sure to post these pix in the reference thread too!

Beautiful! We need some modeling shots and some shots outside. We also need to plan a play date.

I hope to get a slg in elephant to go in my original.

Thanks everyone. For those of you who are trying hard to figure out what it really looks like, I would say the 4th pic shows the color the best. Hope this helps. I love it so much!
