thanks all 🙂
and GB, his name be whatever you dare call him 😉 its your dragon and you must know his dignity and temper, lol 😉
workin at him, he’s gonna be aerobrushed, my boy’s been bugging me to use my airbrush, so I’ll premiere it on him 🙂been doodling on the Xmas card. Many of you already know the procedure of this one.
Oh wow, love the Christmas card! So happy I get one. *claps hands* 😆
And speaking of Christmas, I gotta PM you.thanks all!
I have all the prints done now and am ready to send out the Christmas Card 🙂
I’ve also been scratching round doing a gryphon cast (at school) (after I explained my teacher that an eagle with a feline rear is a gryphon. he . did . not . know.) in cement. I dont know how soon he’ll be done and how many will be made. I just decided it was time to learn silicone casting, because I noticed that at conventions I simply cant keep pace with handmade originals and what is the demand. And because latex and me dont get along (the amoniak)
the form is rather simplified(in pose and basic form), originally made for pure plaster casting only (lost form, has to be easyer releasable without to many undercuts)
That gryphon is adorable!
Read my books! Volume 1 and 2 of A Dragon Medley are available now.

GB: and you’ll definitly get the first one, if he gets done 🙂 I also need to write you bout meeting n stuff… havent forgotten, just never got to 😉meanwhile, I finished the kirin.
And cause I am lazy I am copy-pasting the text:a glance to my bookshelf made me realize in horror, that there still stood the kirin there, a project I started 1.5 years ago. A bit to long for polymer actually. Polymer is practically unspoilable, but my experience showed me that works older than 1.5 years tend to get brittle-breaks, something that needs resculpting if its in dangerous places. You can still remove the clay and reuse it, after kneeding it and warming it again.
Luckyly this hasnt happened yet and so I quickly finished some details and baked the girl. She is a Kirin based on a sketch I made 3 years ago. She will still receive curly mohair on her belly and back, still unsure if I can get it to stand like the hair here:

but it would be worth a try.
Anyhow, here is the basic coat, the rest will be a lightbrown golden and her fur will be lightbrown. IF I can find the friggin mohair again. As usual I put some of my crafts away as to not loose them and to be where I can refind them… which I of course dont.
for the time being, here she is.
She bears some of my better handmade eyes. And yes, that is no right “horse posing”, I am already happy it looks like deer feet and not like the klutzensteins I used to do.(Kirin is reserved for the time being to GB, please tell me if this is still ok 🙂 )
