The basic wings.
I am also busy with the neck 'feathers' that hide the joint between it and the body.

These are quite tricky to make.
The copper is the colour of the torch heat so its quite yucky.
Eventually, when I am further, I am going to make them black with Liver of Sulfur and then work the black backwards to the pink of the new copper.

The crest/mane. I am using my dead end rivet system I devised the other day and it works brilliantly, if I may say so.(ahem)
The thing is that in the bad old days, I would solder these copper overlays on, and that is very messy and always makes clean up a major mission.
The silver horn looks stupid now so I will bend it forward and texture it later.
Magnificent work!
All the gear and no idea
That is a a wonderful piece Hans!!
Wow! Love it
