Ramping Down

As soon as I finish three current projects, I'm going to take a few months away from pipecleaners- with a family and garden and many beasts in the house, there's not a lot of time to spare on multiple hobbies. So rather than dribble my way through multiple hobbies at once, I'm going to focus on a few at a time. This is nothing new- I've always done pipecleaners in surges, then taken a break. But every surge I find myself figuring out all sorts of tricks I've never done before.

This last time, I made the largest, and (at least, I think) coolest dragon I've ever made, and in the process figured out a few new tricks that I've never done before. The scales of the dragon are totally new, for instance. I'm pretty happy with how they came out.

I'm also going to finally have time to post the pictures I've taken of my work, and to comment on them- this is over six months of photos. So while my hands are less busy (with pipecleaners, anyhow) this site is likely to get a little busier, for a while.
