ldhensonWhat happens when S1 of Merlin ends and we have to wait ages for S2?
This.
Yeah, yeah, everyone talks about the big slash dragon under the castle, but the dragon I really like is the one on Camelot's shield.
I've decided his name is Cuddles.
Uther will not be pleased.
Tough luck, Uther.
Cuddles only has the two hind limbs, so technically he's a wyvern not a dragon, but all the knights laughed at "Arthur Penwyvern."
His tongue is a four-strand braid of thread. (Yeah, that was a good idea.) Depending on his mood, it can either mean he's thirsty, saying "bleah," blowing a raspberry at you, or he wants a bite of your curry. And you'd better give it to him, too, because he can fry you like a Hot Pocket.
His eyes are a fetching copper color. They glitter, but you can't see that through the camera.
Like my other dragons, Cuddles' wings, tail and neck are wired. Unlike them, he isn't really poseable. His wiring is only for support.
Also unlike my other dragons, his wings aren't quite anatomically plausible. But hey, I makes 'em like I sees 'em.
(Ignore the loose white thread on the table. I had a spool sitting nearby.)
"I vigilantly stand guard over Camelot from any and all--hey, is that curry I smell?"

I've read about wyverns here and there online and it seems there wasn't a consistent definition for it through the centuries. "Two legs" seems to be more or less the current general consensus.
A Fell Beast is on my "want to make" list, has been for half a year. I keep trying to tell myself he's too complicated to take on, and by now the felt I bought for him has been used for other things. But...
