 * This image was of my first step. I had to draw three images of dragos doing things i love or doing things that would describe me. This picture is of a kangaroo dragon that is a gymnast, funny, and is creative. || this picture was my second step. I choose a dragon flying over the ocean in a bad storm. this was my ruff painting and it doesn't have a back ground. || this was my third step. It is the same as my ruff draft but better and has a background. this image w isnt finished though. When it is finished it will also have a boat, gray clouds, lightnig bolts, and wings. ||

 * My fourth step was when i started to sketch my 3-D model. it is a snake like dragon with the same head as my 2-D dragon but the body is long, winding body with circular segments on its belly. It also has three spikes near the head. || My fifth step was to actually make the model to make my paper mache dragon. I used the cardboard from toilet rolls and used chicken mesh and cloth for the head. I had to use masking tape to tape them down on the base I made out of the tops of paint cartons. || My sixth step was to cover the model in plaster cast. This was quite hard because some of the areas I needed to cover were with edges or empty spaces so i had to add stuff to make them a bit thicker so I could put plaster cast on them. ||

 * My seventh step was to paint my dragon. I painted the dragon a light blue with black spikes and silver japanese symbols. The grass is two shades of green, brown, and yellow. || Tada My work here is now done. after all this work my dragon is finally finished. Now to work on my next project...... ||  ||
