I second the reptiles suggested by Uolym, and I'd add the New Guinea Crocodile.
Check out page 13 ;)
I tried out the crocodile recently, and I've noticed that it has some bugs. It's unselectable ingame, the legs distort a lot, and a weird brownish shiny splotch appears on each side of the crocodile randomly while it's moving. Hopefully this can be fixed, as it'll make it much more enjoyable to use :)

I am here to ask some questions about 2 of New Guinea's Reptiles
What biome does a Crocodile Monitor belong? My gut says Tropical coast because of Mangroves, but I am open to suggestions.
I have to choose crocs
In one corner is the New Guinea Crocodile, small and endemic, the other is the massive salt water Crocodile (personally i want the saltie), which is more widespread. Which croc should I choose?

I would go with a new guinea croc. It symbolises the island more. This said it doesn't stop you from making a saltie ;) ;) *nudge *nudge

I agree with Burns, New Guinea croc is more iconic.
And I think Tropical Coast could work for the monitor (either that, or the classical rainforest).

Some foliage suggestions :

- Nipa Palm Nypa fruticans, (only palm that is a mangrove specialist) ;
- Cannonball Mangrove or Cedar Mangrove Xylocarpus granatum ;
- Hoop Pine Araucaria cunninghamii, a dry rainforest specialist ;
- Mango Bark Canarium australianum ;
- Atherton Raspberry Rubus probus ;
- New Guinea wild lime Citrus warburgiana ;
- New Guinea Rosewood Pterocarpus indicus ;
- Glossy Tamarind/Northern Guioa Guioa acutifolia.

Thanks,
New Guinea's foliage and animals will be spread throughout 4 biomes
-Tropical Rainforest, 2 Mammals, 5 birds, 3 plants
-Freshwater, 2 Reptiles, need plant suggestions for here
-Montane, 2 Mammals, 3 Birds, 1 Reptile, I need some plant suggestions for here
-Tropical Coast, 1 reptile, 1 plant

I am also interested if some one can think of a good base for a Bosavi woolly rat?
I am following your advice as making a New Guinea Croc, but a saltie will come in my Melanasia/Polynesian Pack after I do the Phillipenes.
Animal coding in nearly complete, I will begin skinning and releasing with in a week or so.
Still need object suggestions

Perhaps Raul's opossum? http://zt2downloadlibrary.wikia.com/wiki/Common_Opossum_%28Raulfpv%29
Would mostly need changes in head shape.

Maybe have a look at some of the recent Tamara Henson's works? She made rodents for the Japanese pack and also for the Awesome Australia packs.

She used the old Paranoia rat (which isn't up to today's standards, so it'll need a lot of work) If I recall one of Hendrix's packs, mabe Reptillia ? , has a rodent in it.
