The Ascent, 2012 |
A Dragon's Winter |
This is my very first dragon, made back in 2009. When challenged to make a dragon, I thought a skeleton would be something unusual and not expected. This dragon is made of a combination of Cernit polymer clay and Apoxie Sculpt. The bones are separate sections on wire and are slightly posable. (in private collection) |
I love the Wyvern type of dragon ever since seeing the one in the movie Dragonslayer and again in Reign of Fire. Most of the dragons in the HP movies are also Wyverns. Reading up on this type of dragon has also been an interesting journey. They seem to be a bit more ferocious and aggressive than the four legged kind. But I think what I like the most is the balanced and streamlined look of Wyverns. Wyverns only have two hind legs. The front legs are more like arms, but they are the wings. Dragons have four legs and wings. |
