WIP on dragon....almost complete.

I hope that you had a lovely weekend and did something fun, adventurous or creative. Or perhaps you just stayed indoors, curled up with a good book and lived in another time and place. Any of those things done would have made for a very nice weekend indeed!!!

I'm still working on my EWWL Halloween Flea Market Follies swap, the dragon. This weekend I gave him a good glittering of orange and used red crystals as part of his scales. I really like how the dragon eyes turned out. He's definitely not that sweet little rocking horse anymore, eh?

I have a doctors appointment in the early A.M. (I've decided that this old age thing really is for the birds) and then it's off to work I go (HiHo HiHo) but I do plan on working on his wings when I get home and hopefully do the embellishments on the rockers as well.

Until next time................

WIP on EWWL swap piece!!

Good Golly Miss Molly but I'm beginning to think that perhaps I should have done a simple Day of the Dead painting on this rocking horse. What was I thinking? Well.....ummmm....I was thinking of dragons. BAHAHA

Since I work part-time and am dealing with a few medical issues I'm only getting to work on this piece for short time periods. I still have until the 25th to "get er done" so I'm not panicking........YET!!!!

WIP

I do have all the under scales on and the skin painted red. The little white tabs on the legs are claws and will be painted too. I mean, seriously, what man eating dragon would have such white claws, ri iight? I'm going to highlight the scales with orange and some other detailing but I'm not giving that away at the moment. I know, I can be so baddd!!!

I made a trip to our local Hobby Lobby (SO SO SOOOOO happy that we have one now in our little town. The hubbikins, not so much. HEHE) and found some really cool items to use for this piece. 

I'm going to use the papers on the rockers and then the skeletons will be disassembled and dem bones attached over the papers.

Y'all should have been at Hobby Lobby when I spotted these AWEmazing dragon eyes. I actually did a little happy dance right there in the aisle. Oh yes, I did peoples!!!

Now, I'm going to work on the dragon for a bit before I have to finish getting ready for work AND if I'm not completely POOPED by the time I get home this afternoon then I'm going to work on it some more.

Until next time..................

WIP on EWWL Halloween Flea Market Follies Swap

Having such FUN with this swap project. I was able to get all the under scales completed on the body and also got started on making some of the tiny scales. The horns and ears are sketched out but I'm going to paint them before I permanently attach them to the piece. The face I'm planning on cutting out the individual pieces to give it a little bit of depth. After looking I think I'm going to droop the upper eyelid to give it a more menacing look. I mean this is a MAN eating dragon peoples!!!

After work this afternoon, I'm going to do the under scaling for the legs and then start attaching the individual scales to the body. Want to come help? Dragons have LOTS of scales!!!

Until next time............
