Description
In June I did this character as a submission for Kaijune:
www.deviantart.com/dragonosx/a…
Not only was this the most popular of the 30, this was also one of my favorites (shocking one of the dragons would be one of my faves, I know. ) I decided to do a sculpture of the character. This is 11 inches tall, 9 inches long and 7 inches wide. (roughly 28 cm x 23 cm x 17.75 cm)
This was a mix of a bunch of polymer clays, painted with acrylic paint (airbrushed and handpainted.) I used an iridescent metallic glue as a glaze on the back spines but the iridescence doesn't really show in the photos, kinda just looks glossy. Regular gloss on the eyes, mouth, horns, and claws.
I wanted to do the magma crackle effect on the paint job like it is in the illustration, but at this scale it just wasn't working so left that detail out. Also changed the craggy spikes to have red points unlike being all black like the illustration.
I am uploading a few different views separately.
