Dragon Trophy Sculpt

This is a time lapse of my dragon trophy sculpt. I am using a styrofoam deer head mount, aluminum foil, wire, and Magic Sculpt (2 part epoxy resin clay that cures in 24 hours).

I wish I could have this on my wall. I am obsessed with dragons.

Hi there! This video is perfect! I have a raptor looking dino head on the hood of my van. It's slightly bigger than what you have here. Anyway my original idea was a dragon. I created extra pieces to turn the dino into a dragon. Some crazy homeless person tore off the foam horns. I decided to leave it. Just recently I decided to finish the dragon. This video will be my guide. Thanks so much. I will make a video of the dragon I do and upload it to my channel later. Waiting for the weather to warm up a tad. Lotta snow right now on my van art car, ha! thanks!

Oh, wow!! What a beautiful dragon ! Thank you for sharing ! I have a concern ... I noticed you didn't wear a mask while spray painting the dragon. All those fume is seriously damaging to one's health, please do take care ... God bless and Happy 2017 ;-)

[@DavidLeePancakeArt]

You are correct, I should have used a mask, my bad.

[@christinaaugustine27]

Wishing you Good health and Happy 2017...from Singapore ;-)

Hi David! This is amazing! How heavy did this guy end up being with the Magic Sculpt? - I'm considering making a dragon for my upcoming Renaissance-themed wedding. A dragon is a must have!

[@DavidLeePancakeArt]

It weighs about 30 pounds.

[@kukurydza007]

Just one quick question- is it just me, or are those eyes really glowing? How did you do that?:D PS. This is amazing! You're like my hero :)

[@DavidLeePancakeArt]

I used LEDs and a battery pack to illuminate the glass eyes and the nostrils 😄

[@hellraizer8311]

can i please know the name of this soundtrack? and amzaing craftmanship right there

[@DavidLeePancakeArt]

Composed by my good friend, the title is "Come to Life" by Simon Illa. simonilla.com

[@adonique1481]

very nice work, man! what clay did you use?

[@DavidLeePancakeArt]

Thanks, I used Magic Sculpt, a two part epoxy resin clay. Once mixed (equal parts) you have a 1 to 3 hour work window. The compound completely cures in 24 hours.

[@fionladfinley281]

May I ask where you got your eyes for this dragon at? How did you set up the leds for light up eyes on this one? I have been wanting to make a large dragon trophy like this for years now and keep getting hung up on the small stuff. This one is amaaaazing!

[@DavidLeePancakeArt]

Hi, the eyes are bob cat glass eyes , special order 50mm from Tochin taxidermy eyes. I used a battery powered led xmas lights and glued them in place before I applied the Apoxie Sculpt.

[@fionladfinley281]

Thanks so much! =)

[@nightwalker4769]

Beautiful!!! Quick question though: does the uncured Magic Sculpt stick to the cured parts on its own? Or do you have glue the new parts on to parts that have cured while you weren't working on it? Or otherwise alter the cured surface so the uncured parts can adhere? Thanks in advance for your answer c:

[@DavidLeePancakeArt]

nightwalker4769 Magic Sculpt sticks to everything especially itself.

[@nightwalker4769]
