OK Allen. I don't know any other way to do it from what you told me. I cut every single one of those new marks before I enlarged the 'dip' for the paint with my stylus. It's going to be a witch to paint, almost will take a stencil dab and then wipe with a sponge. Then resit, and do the other colors. And it goes from red to orange to yellow to white. But I'm not in a hurry.

Found this while I was looking at dragon pictures hoping for inspiration to strike..

Added to my things to make when I get good enough list... :)

I've still no ideas for the challenge though..

Hi Dom... LOL I didn't even see the link before.. just the picture. That is the coolest thing ever! When I saw the picture I thought it was one of those resin sculpture like things. Now I see that it's actually a case with a moulded leather dragon on top. Very cool.

Well Sylvia I came to see who you were writing so I could figure out who I missed, followed the link you posted and how very, very cool. I think I'll wait a while before I try one of those :-)

This is such a cool challenge and I love working on my dragon. It's teaching me patience and that not all projects are finished in a day, two at the most. Trying to do these scales, and lava, etc. from looking at a picture is hard, plus trying to do what I thought Allen meant. Only one thing worries me now that I've committed to and following a certain style of doing the details, COLORING the details. head_hurts_kr.gifPicture didn't scan well but I think it's clear enough for people to give me suggestions while I still have time to take them.

Here is my submission. I used a beveler, pear shader, and a modeller. 4/5 oz leather going to be a wallet.

I added color a couple days ago to test a color theme. I used a silver sharpie and green, red and orange sharpies and a dark blue fine sharpie.

It turns out the silver sharpie works great! It is flexible and doesn't seem to want to flake off.

hmmm weird that the icon is black but go ahead and click it to see the picture.

I wish I had some sharpies or SOMETHING for when I start to color mine. By the time I use paint to do this I may have to be hospitalized for a very long time, LOL. I know I picked this one and design not only because it appealed to me but to keep stretching and reaching beyond my comfort level, but I may have over-reached myself finally.

Yours and JayJay's turned out really well.

If you have a Walgreen's near you that is where I got most of my sharpies in kits. The silver and gold ones usually come in 2 packs. My BIC permanent markers came from Riteaid.

If you watch for the rebates and coupons sometimes you can get a whole set for a couple dollars. (after coupons and rebates) And sometimes they are free. In fact along about July-August we should see some great deals on school supplies... then again in January. I think Bic or Sharpie have great coupons available...during that time.

I think I'm going to do the whole thing in red/orange then go over the big parts with their colors. Hell Sylvia, I may just antique it, LOL.
