    I like that head, and i don't think it's a croc.

    There are many types of dragons, at least one per etnic group. European dragons are diferent from Oriental dragrons. And between a chinese and a japanese dragon there are visible diferences. I don't know reasons why your dragon can't be a "real" dragon head.

    Sorry GoTaLL my point was not to insult or belittle your hard work. I've worked with fiberglass and fillers for 15 years so believe me I know that you have invested some time in your project, and it shows. You've done a very good job.
    My poorly illustrated point was that; every one has their own "dragon" vision and you will never be able to render something that will please everyone.
    No one has an idea of what one would look like, maybe it would look exactly like yours?? ;)
    Don't worry about trying to please every else, follow your vision and in the end it will be just right.

    well im not insulted in any way .. its kinda fun reading what peoples got to say tho .. if i followed the advices from all "some very good but a bit late" i would end up with a pile of fiberglass and no dragon at all, i will just add a few things to the head tho it will still be the stretched head i follow my great advisor .. "my 10 year old son" and it will be a dragon i like ;) .. tho i have a few more thinbgs to make tho withing this case and the surrounding stuff needed for a computer.. :)

    mmmm.. stick a flame thrower in it make it breath some fire nex time someone calls it a croc. Im a part time magician and theres this product thats called the personal flame thrower and it spouts 3-4 ft of flames and its completely safe to holdin your hand, and its also very small and self contained, just something to think about

    Cool mod :thumb:
    Like the suggestion of the flame thrower flame-through but how safe can it be?
    If you based the head on a komodo dragon then it would stop people from complaining.

    No more is needed, IMO. It already looks like a dragon.

    Could we get an overall shot with those horns? As I think they may need to be larger/various sizes, but that could depend on how it looks as a whole. Those shots there definately look like a dragon.

    Yes but I would like to see how they look when compared to the rest of the head, as from that perspective they look near perfect, but may not match from a distance. I think it will though. Great work :hip:

    I would say that the horns on the head could be a little larger, but dont have to be. Resoning that the horn on its snout is quite large. Or a posibility could be to create some larger horns sweeping back as in the picture of the dragon in dragon2309's post, well all the pictures seem to have swept back horns. Looks absolutly awsome though.

    Dude make a computer out of that forget fiberglass. Lol Looks sweet nice croc you got there. But it in your fish tank.


    Jk


    I bet the real identity would end up evaporating the water in the tank with its fire breath via an acetalene torch. NO O2

    it needs two long, big curly horns coming out from the top on both sides of the small horns.

    edit: and a longer tongue
