No sorry, I just kind of went on my instincts as to how it should look, manipulated it with my fingers and some basic tools to get it to a good shape. Looking at pictures of dragons might give you some ideas.

Good luck!

JadedExistence In reply to Kirito-Terrance [2008-11-07 05:20:30 +0000 UTC]

thanks! I find this method works fine for small figures, but as you get more experienced working with the clay I'm sure you could add even more detailing to them.
