Description
This is part 3 of 4 of the finished pattern, I am releasing.The pattern is for a highly detailed Toothless-inspired plush dragon.
Note, this image is of exactly A4 size and made for printing:
Do not let your printer resize the image - instead, have it crop the edges, that fall outside of the printable area.'
Remember that all pieces that are not spikes or claws will NEED a ยฝcm seam margin. Don't forget to add this.
For a reference on the pieces, please see the Piece Overview here:

A FEW TIPS ON ASSEMBLING THE HEAD:
Okay - so you made it this far.
Pieces B and C are essentially the same piece - but if you're using fabric with different textures or feels on each side, this is an indication, that one of the pieces should be mirrored - so we don't get a two-face dragon.
1) Firstly:Cut out all the head pieces.
2) Secondly: Attach the eyes, if you're using fabric eyes like I did. If you have resin or plastic eyes, you may want to wait until after step 4.
Then have a look at this picture:

An early prototype - the pattern is incorrect, but the instructions are fine - so use the pattern on this pageยด- follow the instructions in the link

I saw this and said "Hey, I can do that!"
Then I looked at the head's pattern and nearly soiled my trousers >___>

oh ffs... *advice >.<
And I'm also going to try doing an upscale of this... I'm gonna go for a 4 foot long toothless instead. I have a lot of huge craft paper just taking up space so I can draw out grids and scale it up just fine.
I'll post pictures here once it's done and I'll be sure to link you :3

Remember - the old pattern is incompatible with the new pattern - but the sewing method is the same. If you just stick to the tutorial, you should be fine.
Also, here's a trick I used to make the head look better - add a piece of string inside the finished head that's sewn between the eyes - pulling them slightly together - I made the seam back and forth 5 times to make sure it worked, but now, the face is less round and more toothless'y shaped.
