A closer view of the foot being sculpted onto the rocks. Unfortunately the lighting in here isn't always the greatest, so getting crisp photographs of my work in progress is sometimes as big of a challenge as creating the work itself...
Detailing is being completed on the left arm and hand.
A shot of the sculpture with the detailed arm in place. It can take upwards of a day to detail one small appendage. Detailing the body completely took a few weeks.
The great spikes are added to the Dragon's back. As you may have noticed from the preliminary sketch of the Dragon that hangs on the wall behind the work in progress, these spikes are different than what was originally drawn. Sometimes when I am in mid-sculpture I realize that the piece really should look different than what the original concept sketch told me it should look like. This is why I do not do very complex concept sketches before I begin work, as many times I enjoy the excitement of sculpting "on the fly" much more than following a static set of parameters. Until very recently I did not do any design sketching at all.
