Favourite and strangest colour for axolotls

Hi everyone
Well, the pictures of the green axolotls are a fake. I know quite a lot in design programs and most probably this is being done using one of those programs (probably Photoshop) but the person is absolutely an amateur. It is like a cinema effect from the 1940s

. If you know those programs you can generate whatever fantasy come to your mind.
But, on the other hand I have heard of those green axolotls. I will check it out since I know a shop that claims to sell those green specimens.
Regards

I think people are looking for some sort of hi-tech mission impossible or star wars explanation for the greenish tint to the animal's skin. It's just the tank light making a brown axolotl look greenish.
 
Well actually these caudos are green in any light, some of them more than others. The tank light certainly enhances the green. Here's another photo taken in different light. By the way, these are being sold here in Japan as 'Canton green newts'

I was talking about the axolotl, not the Paramesotriton. I've seen various colour variants of Paramesotriton in person before so I don't dispute the colouration.
 
oops, same pic posted twice -- point taken on the
Paramesotriton -- i have seen one that i'd say was twice as green as any i now have

Well, here goes my 3 minutes artist creation. Never trust pixel imatges in this era of technology.

hahaha...good one Yago
i've never heard of a green axoltl, but one of mine, which i purchased as a marbled axoltl, has green blotches throughout her body -- could this be what you were referring to?

John, is this a commonly seen variation?

Yes, that's getting towards green. I think that's more yellow mixed with brown, but believe it or not, real "green" axolotls are actually the same as that but more intense. Now blue axolotls, there's a story...

I donno if this is real or not, but If I ever get one, ima be lookin for a blue one. It'd be nice if someone could tell me if this is real, cause this is the first Axolotl picture i'd seen that aquantited me with Axolotl
