Ferret

I've wanted to try making a ferret skin for some time. Ferrets are related to polecats (skunks) and are ferocious predators. I took care of a ferret in the high school biology lab (along with rats, mice, guinea pigs, hermit crabs, a boa constrictor, an iguana, and a tarantula). The ferret was a irascible prankster. He smelled bad and loved to nip fingers and clothing. He especially loved to urinate on everything. You haven't lived until a ferret has peed on your pant leg.

The ferret skin was tricky because ferrets are long, thin, and sinuous. They also have an interesting blend of colors. They have very cute masked faces with beady eyes and a pinkish nose. I really tried to make him look furry.
