Welcome to the Den...
Behold! My menagerie of fantastical beasts below... Yeah, this is just a little
fun collection of mine I've been working on for about two or so years. I just
like my dragons <3. Also, behold Sausage. He's my little sweety pee :3
Crystal Orb Dragon
This is the largest dragon in my collection. It reclines on a bed of
(plastic) quartz crystals, observing its youngling's orb and draping a wing
overtop to protect it. Everyone knows dragons hatch from mystical orbs,
which they then eat for their first meal. Mystical orbs are high in calcium and
phosphorus. Perchance. The inside of the orb has some snowglobe glitter in it too!
Dragon Tome
This is not actually a dragon on its own, but a little notebook emblazoned with
a glittery dragon facsimile. The paper is actually real, but I haven't marked
anything on the pages. ...Mostly because this thing is at most two inches tall.
The Bar Dragons
These three are part of a set of pub-going dragons! The green one originally
had a dartboard and a dromaeosaur-like toe claw, but I unfortunately dropped him,
which resulted in these breaking off and never being found again :(. The
bouncer dragon and dart throwing dragon are still in perfect condition, though!
The Prism Guard
This dragon clings to a prism protectively. The whole piece is actually a
christmas ornament that I display on my dragon shelf year-round. I think I
still have his box somewhere?
The Birthday Boy
This dragon is the most special in my collection! My mother made it for me for
my 16th birthday cake as a cake topper. He's marbled just like the cake was,
and he had a wizard and a few gnomes for friends up on that confectionary land.
He was also a casualty of the 'dropping and breaking' incident that
happened to my dartboard dragon, so his tail is gone. Hence, he remains up safe on
the shelf instead of closer to surfaces I use regularly.
The Plastic Brothers
Yes, yes, I know these 3D-printed things clog up artist and vendor shows with
cheaply made, plastic bullshit. To be fair, all of these guys were gifts. I think
I am giving them a better home displayed among those of their species, rather
than being fiddled with for like, twenty minutes before being discarded by a
bored child returning to their snot-covered ipad. Oh, and the left adult dragon
is holographic.
The Faker
This guy is a huge fraud. Not only is he NOT a dragon-type, but he's not even
made of real legos! Still, he has wormed his way into my heart, despite his
dragon impersonation and the heaps of pandering his digital cousin receives.
Plus, isn't that fire effect sick??
A Decorative Friend
And, last but not least, this dragon brooch! He is both vibrantly colored and
fancifully bedazzled, if a little hard to properly display. He might find
his way onto a future renfaire costume of mine, if I ever get a chance to
go to one!
