Dragon Azulby *jshapeshifter

Traditional Art / Sculpture / Fantasy

A single and larger picture of the dragon previously posted...remember, there's not a touch of paint on this thing. It's all clay! His name is Azul. He is mounted on Azurite and gold leaf. he took 6 months to create and has over 80 shades of clay........The azurite is from an old mine here near Tucson, Arizona.....

Given 2010-02-11

While Dragon Azul by *jshapeshifter has a great level of detail to it, one of the discerning features pointed out to me by the suggester is that it has no paint work done to it whatsoever, the piece has been sculpted using coloured clay. To get the details and to keep the colour uniform as well as blending here and there must have been an incredible challenge. ( Suggested by ~unclefreak and Featured by !Thebuild )

ohhh I can sooooo imagine how much work that was

exspecially those color blendings with clay O.o

just one question: have you done the "mixed" colors with just "intuition" how the color should look or was it measured like 1:3 ratio for that color and 1:2 for another one and so on? XD
