Seperating the "men" from the "boys"

Wow, my hat is off to all of you who are doing these dragons! I’m almost done with the one I posted ealier. I changed the coloring from dark gold to metalic white, to metalic ivory to pastel dust in green, then finally light brown. I still didn’t like it, so I took out this copper pigment I have been dying to use. Low and behold, it’s a powder! So I dusted it over most of the dragon, heavier in some areas then others. I sorta like it now, I’m still not sure. I have one more coat of sealer, then I’m gonna try antiquing with a darkened watered down iridescent copper paint from Golden. I’ll post photos when it’s all done. I just wanted to post and say how much I respect all the talent it takes to do one of these dragons. I think this is by far the hardest sculpt to do! I’ll be heading back to wolves, griffs and ki-rins, thank you very much!
