 * ==Step One:== || ==Step two:== ||
 * ===I listed words that represented me. To get an idea of what the painting will look like after it was finished, I looked on the internet for pictures of dragon and found a really scaly drgaon. It was the most realistic dragon I've seen. Then I listed words that represented me. For an example, creative, fun, basketballer, swimmer, sporty.=== || ===I drew a draft of my dragon. when the teacher gave=========suggestions and later on approved on my======dragon, I then started on the real thing.I drew my dragon with a background======and gave it a blue and green wash. I then======finished the forest effects on the mountains.====== ||
 * ==Step Three:== || ==Step Four:== ||
 * ===I could only see faint line on the dragon, so then I redrew/traced the=========dragon and started thinking of thge colors I should paint the dragon.====== || ===I started painting the dragon and it was that far really starting to take shape and look good. I was happy wth I had done that far. Now more ideas were formimng in my head.=== ||

 * ==Step Five:== || ==Step Six:== ||
 * ===I finished painting the dragon and then I started adding details to it. After the whole painting dried, I thought it was finished but, Ms.Johnson,our art teacher said that all the finished dragon lacked something. I then realized that my painting lacked a signiture. Meaning my intials. So added my initials and my dragon was finished.=== || ===After finishing the 2D dragon I started on the 3D dragon. First thing we had to do was to explain to Ms.Johnson how we are going to make a 3D model of the dragon.I explained to her that I am going to use yougurt cups and card board to design my dragon. To support it and let the whole thing stand together, I used maskin tape for help.=== ||

 * ==Step Seven:== || ==Step Eight:== ||
 * ===After making sure that the model was going to stand, I covered the model with plaster cast. In order to plaster cast, I had to cut the plaster cast wet it and then stuck it to my model. If I don't wet the plaster cast properly, it won't stick to my model. So, I took extra care in wetting the plaster and making sure it was good.=== || ===By the next class the plaster cast dried and I started painting the 3D dragon. It took me ages to get the color I wanted. I think I repainted the whole dragon a few times before getting the right color. I was happy with the final color and so, I moved on to details. I painted a pattern to make it look as if it had scales. I also dripped various colors of paint on the base to make it look as if the dragon is resting on a flower bed.=== ||

 * ==Step Nine:== || ==Step Ten:== ||
 * ===When I viewed my dragon, it did not look like a dragon, it looked like a caterpillar. So I thought adding wings might help it look like a dragon. So, I added silver wings to my peculiar looking dragon. I outlined and added detail (with black marker) to the wings.=== || ===I used hot glue to attach it to my dragon. I hope now my dragon looks like a "dragon"....not as a dragon fly or a caterpillar with wings.......=== ||
