This is a little frustrating but I had to do another dragon head because my first attempt wasn't strong enough to keep it's form and I also didn't like how it looked. My brother said the first attempt looked more like a crocodile than a dragon and I admit that I thought the same so I started a new one but made differently.
So first I started to draw the outline of a dragons head on cardboard seven times just so I can layer them up to make it thicker.
I then had all seven layers stuck together to make it look thicker with glue and gaffer tape and then I used paper mache out of computer paper to cover all around it except for the teeth because it's easier to paint the teeth in as it is. I got to this point from scratch when I started it yesterday, I really wanted to finish with the paper mache before I went to sleep so I worked on it until about 2AM which was hell.
This is the finished head of the dragon. I'm so happy that it's finished, I'm glad with the way it looks. I think this is way better than what my first head attempt is were I to have finished it. I painted it and added some glitter for a sparkly effect. I would have liked it to be a bit bigger but too late now.
