Step 1: Know Your Dragons

You may not know this, but there's two types of dragons.

• The European Dragon is the most common dragon. They're the ones you find on Disney movies, or the one on Shrek . They're big and very strong, and usually evil.
• The Chinese Dragon is a more rare type to see. They're long and snake-like with small extremities. Usually they're involved with magic and good luck.

On this instructable I will show you the basics for both types

I admit it: I am OBSESSED with dragons. However, I believe that like humans, dragons do not come in different breeds. Have you read Eragon? It's where I get most of my ideas about dragons. :P

U for got wyverns and ampatheters ( not sure I spelled that right but they have no legs and there covered in feathers)

[LoneWolf]

Go to your profile and hit the button beneath where your profile image WOULD be called "Change Profile Image". Then you can upload a picture from your save pictures and make it your profile image.

[wolfeh334]

[texansrule7]

 Mine did not turn out like that but still awesome directions good job keep it up!

[skirts]

uhm, the two legged or armed dragons are wyverns. just thought i'd point that out.

[Keith-Kid]

I have no two legged dragons here. Chinese dragons usually have about 6 short limbs, like in the picture provided. Wyverns are another type of dragon, from the Middle Ages, usually from Europe.
