Sleepy 'Bone' Dragon

Description

So far I've been mostly making very colourful creatures, but I find a patina works better on something with very little colour variation. So I've been using an unblended ivory clay and added a dark brown patina after baking which I reckon gives it a nice aged bone look.

This particular dragon is somewhat larger than the previous ones and meant as a sculpture, not to be worn. I deliberately used many textures and only clay (as I want to display it in a hobby and crafts store using only materials they have (I've made more dragons like that)), hence the closed eyelids. Though in the end I felt a nice marble was needed to hide the hole created by the tail that quite clearly showed I hadn't given the dragon a hind leg on that side (well, marbles are easy to come by right?). Obviously the front leg is tucked away underneath the dragon ;)
