Draglet/Nesslet Garden landscaping
Sue decided to do a Dragon scene in her garden loosely based on Carol Lynn Penny's Genesis Creations Draglets/Nesslets with a large dragon and a lot of hatching draglets

An experiment
with wings
The photos below show the stages the project went through.
The first
two photos show the first stage on construction of each egg which consists of
pieces of polystyrene roughly shaped and covered in chicken wire, each egg is
about 1 foot tall
Stage two
shown below, the eggs have been filled with sand and cement to roughly the right
shape
Stage three
involves getting the fine detail using external filler before final painting
and sealing
For the main
dragon Sue started off by sketching what she wanted it to look like
This is attempt
number one which Sue wasn't happy with
The second
attempt was much more successful and is taking shape.
And here
it is with its 'skin'
And
here with it's base coat
And
here fully painted but needing a coat of matt sealant to take off the shine
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Below are photos
of a second project which shows much improvement over the project above
Firstly
the new main dragon idea is a dragon head with the rest of the body disappearing
down a hole.
And here are
some more new eggs
Below is a
smaller dragon, it is 3.5 feet from nose to tail but only 45cm long and 33cm
across
And here is
a painting production line
