Silver dragon

This model took ages! It is possibly the most difficult model that I have created and possibly my favourite. It is folded from a 1.5 meter square of home made foil-backed paper using aluminium foil and black tissue paper. It is essentially a long stretched bird base, with extra layers for the head. The scales were created with lots of crimps. I had intened to use a method similar to Eric Joisel's Pangolin, which he taught at the BOS conference, but the paper was too thick and the result looked good anyway. The thick layers of foil allowed the elegant posture of the neck and head. The overall model is about 30cm long.
