Thanks for your nice comments, boys and girls, The teeth was a issue since the beginning . At first, i've looked for some references in my old RPG magazines . I've found a picture of a metal figure that was amazing, so i've decided to base my design on it . The teeth were made this way, i knew it was not very believable and that some viewers would see it wasn't realistic . But think about it : does a dragon have to use his teeth, while he can punch, scratch, catch his prey with his back legs, use his tail as a whip and his breath of fire ? Like this, he can still use his fangs as a weapon, not to catch his foes but just to hurt them . Also, he looks a bit like a snake : snakes swallow their prey, so their fangs are not used to tear the food . There could be some venom in there too . So that's why the teeth are made like this . And also because it looks cool ! ;) to Miss Nancy : i don't know how i will texture it at all ! I guess it will be another hunt for the good reference . Do you guys know a site with some good pictures of reptiles ? to Servo : i'm concerned about posing too . This should be my first attempt, but i'll have to wait a bit for that . to CCP : How long ? Between 20 and 50 hours, i'd say . I don't count . Thanks again, litst
