 any chance of getting some detailed plans of each piece? maybe something printable? I'm fairly artistically challenged, but I really like this project!

Here again, beautiful work. Its a nice companion piece for the green one http://www.instructables.com/id/Make-A-Cardboard-Dragon/. I still would like to see a template, but you provide enough pictures that I think it is now easier to to recreate it leaving room for individual creativity. I'm starting mine this week.

I can hardly wait to see what you come up with next.

Not gonna lie, this is really tiiiight. Ive been looking for a project that uses easy-to find materials, but invovles skill to make. Plus, the whole personalization of this one is an added bonus for me, Thanks! Best of luck in the cardboard contest, I'll vote for ya! -xD
