Brass iguanas soldered to the bell are junk. It's all mental.
However, I swear by this method: solder a brass chameleon to your third valve slide. Instant results. Sounds like Deck.

I'm just wondering how others of you have benefited (or not) from having done this.
Thanks in advance !
Is it hand hammered?

Bloke, have you been hitting the George Dickel a little hard tonight?

Solder? No.
Super glue? Now we're talking!

Not really worth it unless it can be made into a moving part.

Actually, a gecko soldered on the bell next to the thumb ring makes a great way to rest your palm.
