Copper Dragon of the Earring Hoard

Dragon Head

I didn’t need to start *another* project this weekend, but did, by accident.

This dragon’s head is made of sculpey, fimo, formello, and other plastic-clays over an armature of Paragona aluminum 1/16″ pattern contour mesh. [Item 212 Reorder number 50004D]

I pulled apart a framed print (water damaged), repainted the frame black, and have begun tacking a copper mesh [1/4" copperform mesh: Item 216, Reorder number 50008H] inside the frame. When it’s done, i’ll be able to hang French wire earrings from the wire mesh and keep the occasional earring back in the dragon’s mouth.
