My dragon has been coming along rather slowly. I had stuffed the arms and legs. Thank goodness for forceps, since I'd never have been able to stuff them without one.... I sewed the pre-made Apoxie claws onto the ends of the toes... ...and beads onto the ends of all the fingers.... The next step was to build up the ends of the toes with Apoxie... ..as well as the nail-beds on the fingers... Then I added the knuckles with 3-D fabric paint.... Yesterday I finally painted the feet.... ...and the hands.... I'd already started the beading on the upper thighs.... *Note that the colour differences between the photos is due to the different lighting. The arms and legs are nowhere near as brightly coloured as in some of the photos. The following photos of the finished 'dragon drumsticks' are closer to the real colour.... Now I have to put her together....

The attention to detail is amazing! She is going to be stunning when you are finished with her.
