SciFi and Fantasy Art: Dragon

This was the first thing I made in clay. Overall, I was pretty pleased with it. The only thing I'm not really fond of is the wings. I eventually had to concede defeat. Sometimes there's only so much you can get a material to do.

Kelly, I LIKE the wings! They are much more convincing than many perfectly posed ones I've seen illustrated.

That creature has apparently accidently stumbled into a small tar pit. The wings fall to the ground as the hope of ever escaping is discarded.

is this trully the first thing you have ever done in clay? impressive... i would like to see it from more angles. as someone who prefers clay i can tell you that it is possible to make convincing wings. the position you are trying to get is everything. try again.

Great work! If this is just your first creation made from clay...do more please. Dragon wings are by far the hardest thing to get right. They warp and crack while drying and fall off during firing. All the dragons I make are all wingless until I figure it all out. The one success I've had I made the wings seperate then glued them on after firing made with wire supports and using an oven craft clay that fires at 350 degs in the home oven.

i hope you still have this dragon...the more i look at it I think it would make a great looking wounded dragon. a couple of arrows in the neck and a few nicks on the wings and perfecto...one cool lookin' dragon.
