Not sure what legalities this may cross but I just got a brochure with a wonderful pewter peice by the fantastic fantasy artist Julie Bell. It's from one of the many fliers I get from a time that I once actually used to be able to afford Franklin Mint collectables. The statue depicts a motorcyle with Dragon Limbs where forks should be, a Dragon Head where a headlight should be, Dragon Ribs where a gass tank should be, and Large Scale-Like Treads on the tires. The rest is pure mechanical maddness! And the rider is quite awsome and cute too!! ;p Hey, I can dream can't I??!

got a picture?

There is an older one she did here: http://www.imaginistix.com/searchprocess.cfm But the new one I think is much nicer, sleeker and meaner. Except she didn't use the dragon's tail like she did in the older one but I think she should have, makes a nice touch! The one I speak of has just been finished in sculptue so probably won't be posted untill the limited editions sell...

I can create a full size replica of the Half Dragon/Half Harley if you are interested. I could make it out of fiberglass and it would be really sturdy. All I would need is really detailed reference photos. Dwmdesigner
