The Picture of Dorian Crochet

“A friend.”

WIP of my OC, Sophronia. I'm working on her tunic, but she'll still need shoes and a belt, and maybe some other little details... She's one of five OCs I'm working on in a set. (I have other OCs I'm crocheting from the same novel.) Sophronia belongs to MCalhen. Please do not ask me for patterns, do not inquire about commissions. Thank you.

Line from Rascal. Some WIPs to finish. I picked up cross-stitch do to this one iconic line, that is it. Had to include "Everything is dreadful, Ferdinand. That's why... my face." This is actually a sad part of the story. :)

Someday I'll finish this :) Fibro allowing

From a novel I’ve been writing to a concept sketch to a full plush: She is finished. I set out to make her because I wanted to start making dragons - in particular, dragons from my story - and thought if I could make her, that would really prove that I was somehow capable of something. And I can’t say it has been an enlightening journey. 2018 marks as one of the hardest years I’ve had so far, and this summer in particular has been the worst. I messed up plenty of parts of Tempra along the way and did what I could to fix her, but being that she’s much larger than either of my cats... Well, she isn’t small, and she wasn’t easy. Still, she’s here. I’m not even sure how I feel about that right now.  I said I’d make many of my dragons, but right now, I can’t be certain which one is next and how many I’ll actually do.  My twitter has more than just amigurumi, since it has writing and sketches posted there as well. I post about my other dragons sometimes. 

She should be completed this weekend, if I work hard enough today (and maybe tomorrow). Most of what is left is ferns and tiny details.  I have a lot to say about her creation and everything that has gone into it, but I will save that for when I post pictures of her fully completed.  I really look forward to sharing her when she’s finished. This project means a lot to me, but again: I’ll save all that for when she’s done.

She's so far and yet so close to being done. Her wings are just getting started...

Updates from last night. I took a bit of a break with her wings last night, but I did start them. I’m not sure how I’m actually doing them, not entirely... Haha. Ferns still aren’t done. D: ...But the moss on her antlers is looking pretty cool. That was not part of her initial design! That idea came later, while I was finishing up her antlers. Wasn’t sure if I could pull it off. I wanted the mossy vines to hang around them, like a proper temperate forest dragon! Anyway, that’s how Tempra is progressing.

Ferns and wings and small details are left!
