Sculpting a Minecraft Ender Dragon Baby, hatching from the Ender Dragon Egg. Is he cute or dangerous I can't make up my mind? :) Made from polymer clay and also Cosclay for the flexible thinner parts. Painted with acrylic paints.

Info: Polymer clay and Cosclay, (which is a flexible polymer clay) are baked before painting with acrylics. Thicker pieces of the sculpture have an aluminium foil core otherwise the clay may be too thick to cure all the way through.

IMPORTANT - Always use suitable protective equipment with epoxy, it can be very bad for your health
