This week’s polymer clay dragon sculpture is another project derived from a class at Polymer Clay Adventure, this time taught by Chris Kapono. The colors in the photos don’t show quite true. In my tile the left side is a rich, deep burgundy…
This week’s dragon started because I was wearing the necklace with Wyatt, dragon number 16 from way back in April, and I remembered that I had made more of those lentil beads, and not yet put them to use. Check out this post on Errol, dragon #1,…
This week’s dragon is an ice and snow dragon named Yínbáilóng (yin-by-long). He’s another one from the Tiger’s Voyage book, and he’s the fifth and final dragon they encounter in their trip. Click on any of the photos for a closer look. For…
This week’s dragons have very different texture for the scales. Instead of having applied scales or some kind of tool mark for scales, I’ve used microbeads. These beads are super tiny, somewhere around 0.5 mm. To get an idea of the scale, Pinkie…
This week’s dragon was inspired by a couple of photos of projects made with the Sutton slice technique. (Many thanks to Krithika for letting me know that these pieces are by Veronika Sturdy.) I knew I wouldn’t be able to do a…
This week’s dragons are indeed polymer clay, although they’re done in a technique you may not have expected to ever see in polymer clay. They are made with origami folds. Click on any of the photos for a closer look. I first…
This weeks dragon was started when I watched Sandrartes’ wonderful polymer clay video on making a cat that is a cell phone holder. I thought it was utterly adorable and amazingly clever and immediately decided to make my own version: a dragon, of course. 🙂…
This week’s dragon began with a faux abalone tutorial I found online. I had decided this week to try covering a dragon with slices of the faux abalone. The tutorial involved using oil paint, and I felt it needed to dry for a…
Meet Estella, isn’t she beautiful? Since I’ve challenged myself to make 52 dragons this year, I’ve also taken up the challenge of making many of them in color combinations I wouldn’t otherwise consider. However, this week I am using my absolute favorite…
This week’s dragon is a wall piece, like Fergus, who I made back in week 28. If you’d like to keep up with my dragon creations this year, I’ve made a Thursday’s Dragon Pinterest board just for them. Click on any of…
