Click this one first!! - I apologize in advance if I have forgotten to credit any artist on the pieces posted in this set of "Prototype work for McFarlane Toys" since many of them are group projects. Please contact me if you were part of any development on these pieces. I will always put credit where it is due. Thanks. Cape, base, paints are done by other artists.

KOMODO DRAGON CLAN 3 MCFARLANE'S DRAGONS SERIES 3: QUEST FOR THE LOST KING - One of the my favorite pieces. It is ironic that the dragon has no horns to makes him look like a dragon, no wings to fry like a dragon. He gets dragon's identity from the artificial armor. Worked on actual product size 6 inches high. I'm usually working on a 2-up size, so I'm sculpting a figure on 12 inches that will be produced as a 6 inch figure. This project was one of the very rare cases in McFarlane Toys that, worked on actual product size. Base, paints are done by other artists.

I like the movement of those fingers. Base, paints, dragon rider are done by other artists. Also other sculptors helped me to put texture on some spot just a few hours before the deadline. It was a big dragon.
