      Looking good. I like his gray little nose. XD What color eyes and gem did you choose if I may ask?

        I picked metallic teal and the blue zircon stone. Now I’m thinking a purplish red might have made a better contrast. Maybe I’ll just have to order another before he is totally done!

          Well those colors will definitely match! I think it’ll be pretty harmonious. But I guess it depends on the effect you’re going for. Pop or blend. Either way, I think this guy will be interesting.

            Added another layer of turquoise and more of the blue accents. Needs more grey still.

                You are coming right along with this. Looks good–can’t wait to see the finished piece.

                  I added another layer of every color. It still needs more grey and one or two more layers on the horns/claws. I’m going to add interference blue to the backbone scales and tip those with a metallic champagne color. I popped the eyes in this time to see how it looked. I’m getting excited about finishing this guy!

                          Alright. Here he is, with two coats of gloss. I’m a little nervous about the antiquing. I don’t want to ruin him. I’m really happy with him at this point. But I wonder just how much better he will look with antiquing. Any pointers?

                            Here’s a really nice Antiquing YouTube vid by a forum member that may be helpful for you. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rZ4SDQdJcFw

                            Good Luck!
                            Your Dragon’s looking really nice so far, and as long as you spray it before trying to antique it, you won’t mess up what you have done so far. 🙂

                              He’s lovely! I think he looks great as is, or with lighter antiquing.

                                If you did some dark blue antiquing over teal colour it might make it stand out a bit more. All you do is thin the darker colour, brush it all over the places you want antiquing, leave it a couple minutes to stick on and then wipe downwards with a damp cloth to wipe off as much as you don’t want left on. If you don’t like it, you can wipe it all off and if it isn’t enough you can do another layer until it looks right.

                                  Here he is! All done. I went ahead and did the antiquing. I don’t seem to have much patience for it. I want to start wiping it off right away! I do like how he turned out though. Sorry for the crappy photos. I need a photo studio!
