Typhoomerang, "Riders of Berk" series

"-You know, what does it mean...? Big burn mark? 
- Big Typhoomerang!"

REALLY big.

It's late night and I've just finished Typhoomerang. Oh, it was tough. 
Typhoomerang is one of the largest dragon species. But unlike Screaming Death that is just long, Typhoomerang has HUGE wings. Each was made from different t-shirt (yes, a whole t-shirt was needed for one wing).

Dimensions: 112 cm / 44 inch long, 143 cm / 56 inch wingspan. 
I'm happy I've finished it, but I have to admit, bigger dragons are easier to sew than smaller, but way more detailed...

Screaming Death, "Defenders of Berk" series

The last one from my three new dragons - FINALLY - the Screaming Death (I called mine Screamy)! In the series, Screaming Death is HUGE and if I wanted to sew it in scale with respect to the other dragons I've made so far, it would be supposed to be about 5 meters or so. Keeping the scale is not possible to all dragon species.
The dragon is 1,5 meter long. and has 45 cm wingspan. It's the biggest and the heaviest dragon in my collection so far.

I'm planning to finish (because I've already started) Typhoomerang (its wingspan is about lenght of the Screaming Death) and Deadly Nadder. Next, I'm planning to make Gronckle (that closes series of five main species appearing in film), then Scauldron, then two small dragons - Terrible Terror and Fireworm, and finally Fireworm Queen.
Enjoy and see you soon!



Here with smaller cousin - Whispering Death.

Original dragon with Toothless - I guess you can imagine size of that monster...

Monstrous Nightmare, "How to Train Your Dragon" movie

Hello!
Second from three new dragons I'm sharing today is Monstrous Nightmare, said to be one of the most aggressive and powerful of all dragon species. It has many color varieties, but I decided to use the most popular one, in a color of fire. That's Hookfang, one of the series' main characters.
Dimensions: 66 cm / 26 inch long, 75 cm / 30 inch wingspan.

Whispering Death, "How To Train Your Dragon" and "Riders of Berk" series

Hello!
Today I'd like to show you the fifth dragon in HTTYD project - a Whispering Death. This snake-like dragon has strange, round jaws with 6 rows of teeth (and they were VERY difficult to make). Small wingspan, very thin body (which is not seen on my toy). But what I'm very proud of is skin color that is exactly the same as original dragon's. 
Dimensions: 72 cm / 28 inch long, 22 cm / 8,6 inch wingspan. Material - colorful cotton. teeth and spikes made from foam. 
Enjoy! 


The point is, real Whispering Death has got 6 rotating rows of teeth PLUS one main (first), not rotating, while my Death has only three not-moving rows PLUS the main one.
