Made out of paper and plastic bottles...and he can spit water too.

Very cool. How long did that take you?

would have been cool if he spit fire

I think he's really neat! Are you going to color the water he spits a blood red?

that looks great, how did you make that with paper and bottles?

thanks guys , it took me a while to make him since I only did little parts at a time.
I started off with a PVC frame , taped small and large bottles to it , paper mache'd it and then used the paper insulation to finish it off.
I could only do 1 side at a time otherwise the paper insulation would fall off so I think it took me about 7 days total to build him. The wings are removable for storage. I'm not gonna make him spit water , it's just a feature that is built in just in case I change my mind.
I don't think it would be a good idea to make him spit fire as he's made out of paper.
I will see if I can find some pics from the first stages.
