Great video.😊👍 I'm starting my first dragon carve, so this will be very helpful.
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks,very informative video
Cheers Simone 🍻 🙂
From doing fish scales in clay with trimmed sticks. This is a good example for carving. I have been watching Jordy for a couple of weeks now.
Cheers Martin. Actually just putting together another dragon video that shows how to Carve round scales. Happy new year 🙂
Matt, thank you for explaining the process in so much details 👌👌the dragon looks so beautiful .
Cheers Mahendra. Hope it helps you in your own carvings👍
A calming dragon,really great idea having a defused instead of smoke,. Incents sticks etc seem a little to strong for my liking.
Thanks for showing the dragon scales but mostly for the " smoke" . 🏴👍😁🏴
Glad you enjoyed. Happy carving Charles
Good stuff
Cheers James 👍
Nice. Can't wait to get the right bits and try this
Ohhh thanks for the tip on scales. That was interesting.
No worries Anthony 👍
Ah ha, the secret is revealed! Thanks for showing us, a great little video on scales too. I always like seeing up close which burrs you used. Ohh, chainsaw dragon, now that would be cool!
Glad you enjoyed it! Hope your enjoying your chainsaw yes you should do a chainsaw dragon - Awesome

Cheers dude. 👍
Beautiful project. Thanks for sharing
No problem. I love carving dragons 🐉🙂
@@MattCarves I do have a wood turning channel too, hopefully you can visit me as well. See you around
Awesome! I'm so wanting to learn this, I have a Salt Cedar walking stick that I've been wanting to carve some designs in. I'm so happy you dropped by Artapalooza last night so I could discover your channel 💕
Thank you Julie, hope you learn a few things from my channel. Hopefully I can get on the Artapalooza doing something soon.
Great tip Matt..would work on fish too I bet ..thanks for sharing that.
Yeah it would work on fish probably make a bit rounder. Cheers John
Super 🐉👍
great helpful video thanks!
cheers. Just watched you spoon carving video. have done a bit of hand carving it's hard work but very satisfying.
Great video Matt! some really useful tips dude thank you
glad you liked it spike. Let me know if you see a technique I use in my videos, that you would want a in depth video on. Happy carving Spike 👍
Cool stuff bud 👍
Just carve
love me a good dragon carve. 🐉 Happy carving Rob. hope your roof is weather tight now 🌧
Phenominal work! Could you elaborate on how to do the scales on a curving neck, or more rounded area?
Cheers Steve. carving around curves is a bit trickier, if you want it to look realistic I would think about the scales expanding in size on a convex curve, and the oposite with a concave. My personal style I try to hint at realism by putting areas of details in and thus the viewers eye and imagination expands on that and fills in the gaps. Hope that helps
@@MattCarves it does! I'm new at this, but found your channel and this is the style I want to learn. Thanks for your insight buddy. I'll be watching for more!
This is awesome, thanks Matt. I have worked on some hickory axe handle wood to create scales. They have been rounder and far from your diamond shape crispness. I'll try it on my next axe. Cheers Gus, Nelson, nz
Cheers Gustav. Nelson is an amazing place to live I lived there for a few years, and loved it. Good luck with those axe handles👍
Amazing bro!
Cheers Matt
After using a burr like that, how do you clean up the fuzz?
I usually finish with a diamond Burr and lightly go over the fuzzys and some times a light sanding. hope that helps. Happy carving 👍
Hey Matt, I'm using your method on a wood handle, a katana sword to be exact, I have the top and sides portions open for the scales but rather (because of oblong shape and creative purpose) than a tubular design I'd like to incorporate a spine type scale on the top of the handle which will transition into the scales you demonstrated.
Would you have any ideas along the lines of that? Oh, every bit of experience I have doing this is from this video, so far I'm still at "after you practice enough" stage. With no accomplished projects. I've worked with wood my entire life and have done tattoos so I think my progression is going ok. Practicing of course.
Well that project sounds awesome. Yeah the spine spikes sounds great. I did a similar pattern on the smoking dragon I made. Will leave a link for it. Yeah it takes a lot of time to learn, but with your background you have a head start. I think people believe I make these carvings fast but they all take longer than you think.

@@MattCarves ty, that is helpful. I'm a retired cabinet maker so I do have a lot of experience with routers and mortise, tang and socket chisels but this is a whole different animal, no pun intended.
Actually, I'm way out in the water being I started out with a spring steel rod and a block of Birch, the blade has a full tang, shaped, sharpened and polished to a 1500 grit so far. The handle I sanded into a simi recurve with unique carving and inlaid little metal dragons that came with the other Katana parts I ordered on line. Truthfully, I've never attempted anything like any of this, but it's for my 16 year old son. I'll be off to my next life by the end of this year so I really want to give him something I made myself before I go. I had a general concept for it but you Matt brought it together with this video. So thank you. Being able to learn how to do these scales really took this far beyond what I had envisioned.
And gives me a sense of accomplishment towards something very meaningful. And your making me look like the coolest dad ever.
So again, from one Matt to another.
thank you, Matt.
I'm so pleased to help you out with what you are creating for your son. I am sure it will bring him special meaning throughout his life, knowing his father took the time to make something awesome. Cheers for sharing. Let me know how it turns out. 👍
Is this difficult on harder woods like cedar?
The wood I am using is harder than most cedars. So should be easier.
Easier with chisels for me to be honest.
