Description ***Warning - LARGE FILE.  I mean LAAAARGE.  holy sh** its 2k x 10k!  Do not say I did not warn you!***


Here, it is - the big, official, festive ... thing.

My MASTERPIECE!  It is doneth.  Well, sorta.   There are some loose ends that need to be tied, and the detachable tail needs necklace pieces.
Christmas present for my boyfriend - started out as a present for some whole other occasion, but I could not make it in time back then.
So here are a bunch of pictures, because one could not show all the awesomeness I see in this (absolutely not) little bewie.
I know it is not exactly precise (missing last wing-finger), but I love him nonetheless.

used Strecno 's picture> strecno.deviantart.com/art/Too…  as a reference for the pose, as you can probably tell
bg texture is from =Sirius-sdz
cca. 30 meters of wire and even more string.
3"x 2"x 3" with tail curled and wings spread upwards.
0.2 lbs - altho he feels a lot more heavier

pattern is completely my own invention, pretty much made it up as I went

used 2-wire beading for the body and legs/wings and peyote stitch for the membranes - it really does give a soft leathery feeling.... mmmmhhmm.

time:
stopped counting after 50 hours - but if I had to guess, I would say around the double (including two overnights)

I MIGHT open commission for another one in the new year - provided there is anyone interested....

OH man.  I still cannot believe I have done it.

By the fact, I could not copy the head correctly.
The first pancake is always lumpy))
Maybe, you have a photo of the bottom side of it.

I didn't take pictures of the underside as I recall.  But it can be arranged if it helps you.
However, I'd really like to ask you if you make multiple copies of the bead figure not to sell them.  Same stands for the pattern.  I know I cannot prevent you from doing so, but I trust your good intent.

I don't think that in my neighborhood it would be possible. Anyway, I don't plan to put it on sale, maybe for close friends only.

Thanks!
There is no scheme to it, I made it up on the fly.  He is no longer in my possession so I can't check it for you either.  Sorry.

Truly a work of art.... I am almost finished with my own dragon and can appreciate the time and devotion spent on a piece like this. You are a bead master!

Thanks for the compliment!
You are quite a craftsman yourself - your phoenix is amazing! (I didn't comment then and there ... I usually just "fave-and-run")

Good luck finishing your own dragon! And if you think, drop a link by when it's ready :>

Thank you, I'm glad you like it!
I did make a whole lot a of pictures while I was making it and I do plan to upload it but I gotta throw them together yet.
However there are a lot of things that you can't really see on photos - like how certain wires run inside and where are they fixed ... worse, even I can't remember them all.

*but I will try my best.
