A Dragon for Serious Collectors

[Erifnogard]

 

 

It is a nice wyvern. But I'm not that keen on the pose.

 

Always annoys me........Dragons have 4 legs. Wyverns have 2.......that's one of the things that annoyed me about Smaug in the last Hobbit film

 

Only in D&D. otherwise the words may as well be synonymous.

 

In lots of places yes, but in English, Scottish, and Irish heraldry dragons have 4 legs and Wyverns have 2.

Not forgetting the only country in the world to still have a heraldic flag......and it just so happens to be a Dragon.....us Welsh

Why do dragons have to have four legs? The only thing in nature with six limbs are insects.

They don't it's fantasy they can have a hundred legs and the head of a baboon.........but as mentioned it's a cultural thing so to me no 4 legs not a Dragon.

I dunno. A dragon with four clawed legs plus wings just seems a lot more dangerous and threatening than a dragon with only hind legs and wings.

 

And who wants a wimpy dragon?

Actually, most flags and most corporate logos still follow the rules of Heraldry.

It's beautiful! It's a flaming beautiful piece of art.

It is very beautiful. But I think I liked his penguin better It was 1:1 scale too

The knight?

Looking around his site, I saw something saying the 'Pygmy Shrew' started at 1200....

 

That = a whole lotta lead....

But I guess if you have  the Disposable income....

At that size it doesn't matter if it's a Dragon or a Wyvern, you call it Sir.

And it calls many things dinner...

[Sirithiliel]

No, i'd call it my 'darling little spikey-wuffkins!"

 

who's a good beastie? You are! you are!

Yes, but you're the Queen of the Dragons and are thus allowed to call any of drake-kind whatever you want. We lesser beings need to be careful what we call them, lest they turn us into an hors d'oeuvres

I'm curious what it's going to be mounted on.  It looks like it's going to be on a very sizable rock (or... something), just on account of the downward "hunch" and the negative space between the wing/tail/body.  I mean, clearly you couldn't just set it on a table as-is...

[TaleSpinner]

It would be interesting to work in that scale.  I'm too used to being able to hold my pieces in hand as I sculpt.
