I still love these little guys and will probably always make at least an ocassional dragon-type creature. Actually my very first website on GeoCities was called the Draggle’s Lair. It’s a little embarrassing to look back at it now but I was really proud of it at the time

Here’s another blog you might want to check out. Many Parts is from artist Grant Diffendaffer. I’ve taken a couple of workshops with him and really got alot out of them. His work is stunning and really original – I managed to buy one of his vases when he was selling them [...]
