Here is my first griffen. I still have a little more work to do on him. (Before)

https://i139.photobucket.com/albums/q313/Romeodanny/IMG_0098.jpgThank you Cheryl and Ski. I’m really getting sick of the guy myself. I’ve been working on him since November. The claws have to be repainted, but, I don’t remember how to get that colour. Hopefully, I’ll get something close. I have a antique style key that I’ll be hanging from his paws when he’s finally done. I hope he’ll be done by the end of the week. Then I’ll start my Romeo dragon.
How will you attach the key, Romeo? Those folded claws are just made for holding something, but I don-t dare mess them up by drilling or gluing…

The only way I can see is glueing it on. I don’t think wrapping a chain around the claws would work. I wouldn’t drill. I could just see the paws falling apart. So glue it will be.
Well, I have lots of epoxy left from the candlelamp so I’m sure that will work. I just hope I can stand the smell of it again. It was expensive glue too. It was around $6 for 25ml.
I think I’m going to change the nail colour. It looks too much like nail polish. Maybe some brown mixed with the nail colour. Any suggestions anyone?That is a neat idea. I can’t wait to see when you are done with it. What if you tipped the nails in gold?
I tried tipping them in gold, they just got lost in the paws. I added burnt orange and this is what I got.
