Description Not entirely impressed with this, but I only spent two classes periods on it. One class period to make the armature (pain in the BUTT) and one whole class period to put on the sculpey, a medium I've never used. xD It's very different from normal clay.

But yeah, not totally thrilled with this, I'm just glad I'm turning it in soon. xDD

Anatomy of mythical creature = NO.

I already know the mistakes, so if you have any suggestions for future projects, I'd greatly appreciate it. xD and I kinda rushed the feet, which is why they look like crap. xDDD

I have my cellphone next to it for a size reference.

Oh, hi. xD Uh, it's just some florist wire with sculpey smooshed on it.

You might not be impressed, but I am. O.O

Plus, you've obviously given enough thought to anatomy to give the thing thicker bones where support would be needed...it's a dragon, it doesn't have to pass the scrutiny of a forensic anthropologist!

hah. I was braggin' on you the other night to another friend of mine who does Sculpey-type stuff, this was so cool lookin'. Though hers tends more towards the cute and punny.

I am madly in love with sculpty. I work with polymer more than
kiln-bake clay, if only for the fact that it's expensive...and I don't own a kiln.
Plus, with sculpty you don't have to worry about beating the clay into submission before baking. x_x

I'm curious as to what the thickness of the wire for the armature was. It usually takes me forever
to get it done, and I don't even have the patience to make it standing. Immediate kudos there.

I actually do like the claws. They kind of remind m of a raccoon or chinchilla hand, and I imagine they'd
be very cool scaly. The skull actually looks a bit dog-like at first, but I think it works really well with this
design. Lovely work!

it turned otu great though for working on it a day

try super sculpey III its firmer. also theirs fimo..you just have to try little blocks of diff kinds to find which one you like. sculpey "white" is just super soft, that might have been your problem ^^

SushiBagel In reply to Tacianja [2010-10-30 02:04:42 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, it was really soft. It came in hard chunks that broke apart, but became malleable after messing with it for a bit with your hands. Is that normal? I'm only used to working with stoneware kiln firing clay.

Tacianja In reply to SushiBagel [2010-10-30 03:31:11 +0000 UTC]

yeah that's what it does ^^ fimos much harder to condition(make soft) heat from your hands softens the clay too.
ah yeah its very diff then stoneware that's for sure ^^
