Love this and how you used so many different colors to really show the beauty of the Python.

This is great, I like the way the python comes from the top of the picture. It has more presence that way I think.

What do you mean? The total list of all the colours I used (it would be too long to list)? Or what I used for the iridescence, or just for the snake?

For the snake of course. P:
I noticed some shades of Purple, Blue, Green, Orange, and Grey.

Um, yeah, the full list is probably too long (i.e. of specific shades) but there's:
- indigo
- brown
- black
- french grey
- oriental blue
- jade green
- red
- orange
- yellow
- white
- pale blue
- pale grey
And then iridescent paint in violet, blue, turquoise, green, gold and red overlaying the colours so that it will shine at certain angles, like this:
