Dragon pen - Wax carving

Never posted any photos of the wax and wanted to share.

I lost count of the hours it took to carve this. Was tedious but fun. All started from a solid block of wax. He was carved with rotary carvers, picks, and a wax pen. Citrine eyes. I didn't carve him on the pen as the pen is sterling and 14k. I carved an exact replica of the pen in wood and carved it on there; only slipping it into place on the pen to check snugness.

Finished piece!
