Description Rawr!

My sister generously donated the stones for his cave...
you can see a closer picture of him here .

11 cm from snout to tailend (not counting the flames), that is 4.5 inches.
Time taken: 4 hours. Gee. I keep forgetting how time-consuming these guys are...

available for purchase - note me if you're interested.
...FAQ ...

thin wire, beads
the design of this bead animal is NOT by me! I used a pattern model, which is © Ingrid Moras.

I've seen that dragon before... do you buy Ingrid Moras' beading books?

as stated in the user comment, I use her pattern models.
The pic is NOT scanned, if that's what you wanted to know...
sorry. I'm a bit defensive today, I got spammed bad yesterday.

Lady-Aragoon In reply to cuddlefactor [2007-10-14 21:20:45 +0000 UTC]

don't worry! I didn't think of you stealing her art. In fact I'm impressed you can follow the patterns so greatly, it is kinda difficult for me.

Btw, you got spammed on what? I feel very sorry.

cuddlefactor In reply to Lady-Aragoon [2007-10-15 10:12:47 +0000 UTC]

sorry again for the aggressive comment then!
I've been working to her patterns for quite a while now, and I've been beading a lot for ... 6 or 7 years now, I think!

I got a comment plastered all over my front page, saying "YOU ARE A NAZI WHORE AND YOUR NAZI ART SUCKS"... you know, repeated over and over.
and even if I know that guy just wanted to complain and I should absolutely NOT take it seriously or personally, it hurts.

that's what lifeless people do, spam. Bet it's really offensive.

I have alot of Ingrid Mora's books! but I use them just to learn different kinds of details or to get ideas, normally I like to make my very own patterns, unless some random person asks me for an animal and I'm too lazy to make it up myself so there I use the books XD

I've recently moved to the USA, I hope my mom brings me all my beads, I miss working with them ._.

I've just started to do my own designs... never had the guts or the patience up to now. my first design turned out pretty good though... it's my featured deviation now.
imagine, I even TALKED to Ingrid Moras once!!! I talked to the goddess of beading!

cuddlefactor In reply to Lady-Aragoon [2007-10-23 12:59:18 +0000 UTC]

yesh I did... to ask if I could submit her designs here.
and she gave me permission, under the condition that I credit properly, which I always do.
Imagine, I FINALLY FOUND A SHOP THAT SELLS BEADS AGAIN!!! *crazy happy dance*
I can continue beeeeaaaading!!!

Oo woah... geil XD für so was hab ich absolut keine Geduld... (ohne Witz, ich kann mich stundenlang an kleinst-gefissels an Bildern aufhalten, bei sowas verlier ich spätestens nach 10 min. die Lust XD)
Ist sehr genial (ich verkneif mir mal das "auch, wenns nach nem Muster ist", ich hasse nämlich den satz "auch, wenns nur abgemalt ist", ich weiß nämlich, dass da trotzdem Arbeit drinsteckt...) ^_^

lol nochmal danke!!!
hmm ja, es ist doch immer wieder ziemlich kompliziert... denn wenn einem einmal der Draht abbricht oder so, ists schon wieder mindestens eine halbe Stund mehr arbeit.
ich find's toll, dass du so begeistert bist, viele leute denken dass etwas was nach einer Vorlage gemacht wurde nicht wert ist, kunst genannt zu werden...

Mi-chan785 In reply to cuddlefactor [2006-12-01 19:10:57 +0000 UTC]

achdusch... das is natürlich mal voll übel Oo was macht man dann? neu anfangen?? Passiert das oft?

hey, ich kenn das selbst... ich mein, klar, es ist natürlich NOCH MAL ne spur genialer, wenn man gewisse Sachen von selbst auch so hinkriegt, aber, hallo? Weißte, ich hab schon so Kommis gekriegt ("Is ja nur abgemalt..." etc.) für bilder, an denen ich ~16 Std. gesessen habe (z.B.: [link] oder [link] ) und da könnt ich kotzen >.< Ich finds jedenfalls toll, vor allem, weil ich weiß, dass ich das net hinkriegen würd XD

cuddlefactor In reply to Mi-chan785 [2006-12-02 11:34:54 +0000 UTC]

nein, aer man muss die letzten paar reihen aufmachen und mit dem alten und einem neuen Draht weitermachen - nervtötend.

WOW. aber stimmt, besonders hier in dA reagieren leute ziemlich empfindlich auf alles was abgemalt ist... du könntest diese bilder nur in Scraps submitten, und das verdienen sie echt nicht. omgwow so detailliert!!!!

Mi-chan785 In reply to cuddlefactor [2006-12-02 18:45:02 +0000 UTC]

Oh Gott >.< siehste, da würd ich schon keinen Bock mehr haben XP

nya, sagen wir mal so, hier bei DA - würd ICH jetz mal sagen - ist das alles bisschen... "professioneller"... ok, gibt auch hier Bilder, wie ich sie vor 10 Jahren gemalt hab, aber... ... insgesamt halt... ^^"
tja, sowas lad ich dann eben bei mexx, da gibts extra n Feld "Abgezeichnet" und es gibt immer auch Leute, dies "trotzdem" gut finden ^_^
klar, WENN ich mal was abmale, dann richtig XD Sonst wärs ja witzlos ^_^
