Caught a Dragonby *Magweno

Artisan Crafts / Dolls, Plushies & Custom Toys / Original Artist Dolls

A commission for a client on Etsy. He just said he wanted a happy dragon and purple was his favourite colour, so this is what I came up with!

As usual I had masses of fun making this guy, the sculpting was fun and PAINTING has become really fun since I bought some decent paints!

I'm really, super happy with the colour scheme, gold and blue was always one of my favourite combinations when I was young and gold and purple always looks so regal.

Doll commissions are closed at the moment, but if you would like to be put on the waiting list for when they open again, please send me a note.

P.S. a lot of people have been expressing concerns that this is a real animal that has been dressed up. it ISN'T it's a DOLL but I'm pretty pleased it looks that convincing haha!

Edit
;__; I can't believe I got another DD, it came at such a perfect time too. The first one was for Odette, which was one of my first dolls and I sold for £40! And it was thanks to that DD that my commissions really took off, and I continued making and developing these guys. Now, something like a year or so on, I've got to the stage where I have the most AMAZING support on DA and I can now make and sell these for a living! So DA, I owe it all to you!

Thank you to

for suggesting it as a DD, and PLEASE check out her gallery, she is the sweetest most lovely person. Thank you also to

for featuring it... This is another chapter to my life.

Commissions are currently closed, non-winged dolls (like this dragon) cost £150/$232 and if you would like one please send me a note and I'll add you to the waiting list.
