I went ahead and bought the pattern, now to convince myself to make time to create this. :)
Мама миа!!!! Я даже не могу себе вообразить сколько РЕАЛЬНОГО ВРЕМЕНИ у вас ушло на воплощение этого проекта. Мне кажется что для мастера, который смог пошить такое изделие из кожи, нет ничего невозможного, чтобы он не смог бы сшить!!!!!🤔
I cannot fathom thinking of all these little pieces and how they are supposed to go together to make such an awesome dragon.
I do believe you have outdone yourself. Congratulations.
This was mesmerizing to watch. The skill in designing this is amazing. Well done!!!
Моя вы хорошая.😳🤗 Это сколько же труда и терпения вы вложили в эту работу????!!!!! Моё вам почтение!!!!!!!🤝🤝🤝🤗🤗🤗
This is truly awe-inspiring! I couldn't possibly make this, but I can imagine the countless hours and skill spent in designing, developing and perfecting it. I feel privileged to have been given the chance to watch the making :) Thank you so much for posting!
You can make it. With the patterns and video tutorials, they are straightforward and easy to follow. The dragon is no more or less complicated (except maybe the stamping). There are just more parts, and curves take practice to cut.
I’ve enjoyed the pieces I have made with these and other patterns. Give it a try!
@@andrewb9590 Thank you for your confidence, it's much appreciated :) I have had some excellent projects resulting from CA patterns and don't doubt one stitch-hole or the quality of instructions - I do, however lack the equipment and the dexterity this clearly needs....yet :) This definitely goes down on my future list though. Your encouragement has not gone amiss; thanks :)
I can't wait to go out of my mind creating this project!! Bravo Creative Awl, Bravo!!!!
I'm making just the head as a stand alone. It looks seriously off. Why did you not show closer detail on stitching the bottom jaw to the head? You kind of skipped right over it. I figured it out based on hole count but it really looks bad. Does it need a 'throat piece' to help it keep its shape?
I am impressed. The pattern is faultless and very well put together and designed - I have just finished and it is easier than the owl, which was my first project. A few comments for others 1) don't underestimate the time it takes - you WILL finish but take it slow, you have another life to lead 2) don't be discouraged by the professional video - yours will look great too as nobody in your life will compare it to that 3) do you really need to stamp / dye etc? It is really important to get the stamping right, it takes a LOT of time, it won't look as good as the video, and the stamp is expensive (in the UK as it has to be imported. I did stamp the head - it is OK, I guess, but I am glad I gave up after that. Natural leather look is good too. I am looking into painting the leather (it is a thing I understand) - maybe one day 4) "floppy wings" - both, the dragon and the owl. Seems like Creative Awl have a design blind spot. But again easy to fix in both by extending the cycle spoke / wire coat hanger idea across the body and stitching in - it transforms the look for the better 5) I think it is better without the arms - more realistic for a "real life" (!)dragon. Arms would be an evolutionary travesty 6) the "backbone" part of the design is genius. It doesn't look as though it will work but stitching pulls the whole thing together into a rigid unit. Whoever thought of that?!
This is Ulta impressive....you are a master leather crafter...thanks for sharing.
Just finished my own dragon with this patterns , it’s so amazing, thank you so much guys ❤❤❤
Yep, currently going wacko creating this. I found it helpful to make note of the attachment numbers & L/R on the pattern, then cover the pattern pieces with clear packing tape before cutting or punching the holes. This way once cut, you'll know exactly where things go. I also used scotch tape to do a mock up of the Dragon with the cut out pattern, this helps with making sure the scales will be going in the right directions. Keeping various body parts in zip locks also helps(there's alot of pieces!) After merrily blasting away at stamping the scales, I found all the holes got squished closed & had to re-open them :/ Got the wings done so far, now for the fun!! Epic engineering in making this pattern - thanks Patyrik!
You guys always have such cool creature patterns. I agree with another who commented that looks like it is missing arms in the chest area--but the ones in GoT don't have them --but so many others do. I am sure it would be an easy "fix" to add them. Still all that stamping and stitching wow
its based on vywern-dragon, that is why it's missing upper arms.
Well done, awesome pattern.
Can you please show how to sew the jaw in detail? The video just jumps ahead with no real reference or information for how to sew it.
Genial muy bueno fantástico excelente 👌👌👌👌👌
Felicidades es un trabajo extrordinario el diseño es fabuloso, pero a la hora de unir las piezas es de maestria de nuevo MUCHAS FELICIDADES
Great build. What would I do next time? Try to do the scale stamping first. Maybe stamping a whole sheet before placing the pattern on and punching and cutting? Had a helluva time stamping those little pieces and figuring out spacing and which direction the scales should run. Also will figure out how to insert another spoke thru the body and shoulders. The wings seem to droop where they attach to the body. Need some stiffening there.
Just found you! I will be ordering patterns. OMG!!
Hell yeah!
this is amazing. your fingers must have been aching. it looks like it should have two "arms" near the rounding of it's chest.... beautiful
the ridge on the top of the wings have too many holes and do not line up with the top of the wing to hold the wire in. What is the reason for that? how do I fix it?
cannot tell if the leather was stamped with the dragon scales before or after punching the holes and cutting out the pieces
Personally I normally make the holes first, then cut the peaces, and then the whole stamping proces, followed by painting, resoline, antique, and resoline again
Totally fricking amazing thanks so very much
I love this pattern! But I am having issues finding spokes that are 20" long. Should i be looking for spokes that are for 20" bicycle wheels?
Superb😮
Браво! 👋👍🔥
Any reason you use the antique after the resolene and not before?
It's to prevent that the paint is going to mix with the antique finish, depending on the paint and the drying time it can come out pretty ugly if you won't, I had this a few times myself, even by using the same paint and procedure it came out different as meant to be a few times, after I painted, sealed it and put the antique finish, I put a second layer of resoline, to seal the antique finish 😉
Hello, iv purchased this pattern and would like to know how much time was there between dying then neatsfoot oil and then resolene? Did you wait a day in-between each? thanks
Amazing!!!
Bravo!!!!
Hello good evening. You don't have any baphomet design. Greetings.
What is the average time frame for this project? Start to finish, how long should it take 1 person to make this?
I guess about 60 hours
Code does not work to purchase the dragon scale stamp.
Super!
What was this dragons total price in materials?
У меня вопрос. Почему у дракона направление чешуи на шее и на груди развернуты на 180⁰ относительно друг друга?
Do you have links to the specific stamps you used?
So I just bought this but am not really expecting to start on it for a while. I want to hang it in my library as a book dragon. How would you recommend I hang it? Thank you for any suggestions.
Go with thread through holes on both wings and maybe one through the neck. So you will have 3 threads wrapped together. By the way - I'm on the way to put a free pattern for dragon's stand like a castle tower :)
👍👍😍😍
I cannot wait!! What size stamp do you use? I need to purchase one for this!
Don’t know about her stamp but the ones I see usually measure either 1/2 inch or 12.5mm or 9/16 inch or 14.8 mm. Either way I find they can be tedious and have to be placed spot on to achieve a nice pattern. All the more reason to applaud the work that went into this job.
I used stamps form Sergey:

@@CreativeAwl I got the Sergey dragon scale from Springfield Leather and made a 4 x 4 inch coaster. Daughter looked at it and I told her it was dragon scales. She said she thought it was umbrellas. Oh well. Thank you for your code.
@@CreativeAwl Not cheap, especially with shipping to UK! However, I am considering a purchase (clearly a piece of art in themselves) but I can't get this discount code to work
as to th bicycle spoke could we use a clothes hanger for it?
Should work but it can't be too flexible.
At the time 25:19 shows the legs facing in a different direction than when finished at 27:55. Were they put on backwards to start then changed midway. I am following the video to complete this and now that I have done one leg it appears to be on backwards. Now i have to rip it out and start over. Am I missing something?
I had to watch this twice as well, it's the left and right leg, that's why it looks like it's the other way around
You are abolutly right, looks like they made a mistake and fixed it in a cut, i have the same probelm as you
on etsy it says ya need 2 x 20" bicycle spoke. but on the video i don't see where you insert the wires. can ya explain how or where to put these pls? i bought aluminum 1.5mm wire from amazon as i dont know what bespoke is and no one has this in stores.
She used it on the top edge of the wings
Bicycle spoke is the wire In the centre of a wheel. Find an old bicycle wheel and cut out the spokes ( wire)
@@keelyjohnston19 ruclips.net/video/CHRuVr65tQ4/видео.html its from 7:30, it should be available in any bicycle shop for about 0.5$ each.
Some car sun shades have a metal frame around them. The ones you have to twist around to fold them to put away. Try one of them
Thanks Draco, and I was having issues with this part. Thinking of using welding rods, or rod stock from a hardware store. I'm on an island and this is a hard one to acquire locally.
Is it possible to buy this??????
Im selling the pattern but i could send a drake too, email me on creativeawlstudio@gmail.com

Well done. Now make an adult one miss!
Maybe next time not such a frenetic music selection....made my nerves go crazy

Why are you in such a hurry with this video? There are many important steps barely or not shown and may times in Fast Forward. Slow down, let us see what is going on. If we know what is going on let us choose to skip forward, not be rushed.
