Sasha Lilias Posted February 21, 2014 Report Posted February 21, 2014 So here is my first attempt at origami... [sharedmedia=gallery:images:2136] [sharedmedia=gallery:images:2137] Quote
Root Admin Muratus del Mur Posted February 21, 2014 Author Root Admin Report Posted February 21, 2014 Sasha, i saw origamy drachs before, this is a simple atempt, does not look that interesting compared to others i saw. My verdict, good but not enough, try again. You could do origami still if you want, but thats no drach there...and maybe you can find something more original anyway...its a drach you are getting as a reward, put some effort :) Quote

ZulNaar Posted August 12, 2014 Report Posted August 12, 2014 Wanted to check if this quest is still going. I was working on a BIG one, so please tell me if anyone is still checking this thread :) Quote
dst Posted August 12, 2014 Report Posted August 12, 2014 It's still going on. The only issue is that you'll have to wait for Mur to see your "piece of art" and then wait for the prize. Unless you find a way to bug him and speed up the process, this might take quite a while. Quote
ZulNaar Posted August 13, 2014 Report Posted August 13, 2014 It's alright. If I get the expected result you will ALL be bugging Mur :) Quote
Popular Post Azrafar Posted November 17, 2014 Popular Post Report Posted November 17, 2014 (edited) Hello. This is my first attempt to bake a drachorn! (Sorry, I don't have a proper camera, I made the pictures with my smartphone. If it is not good enough I'll try to make better ones.) http://i.imgur.com/6QtP0aD.jpg http://i.imgur.com/TChacnI.jpg http://i.imgur.com/DbUiRbU.jpg And while baking: http://i.imgur.com/zsghM7w.jpg (Yes, I only have a mini oven.) I decided to make one and experiment with "food art". It is not as easy as I tought :)) Well, the drachorn got a bit chubby. But it's skin is made of dough mixed with tomato sauce and spiced with some oregano. His stomach is filled with minced meat, also spiced (It's a lie, it is made Lorerootian style with soy). His eyes are made of black pepper and his spikes from chipped noodle bits. I'll open him up and show the insides once I make sure the image quality is ok. http://i.imgur.com/lc6glyM.jpg EDIT: Oh, I forgot to state what reward I'm aiming for. I would like a Wishpoint. Yes, a WP not a drachorn. I'll eat the drachorn. Also I removed it from the tray: http://i.imgur.com/SjlcxoE.jpg http://i.imgur.com/qaW76vw.jpg It didn't fall apart! Hurray!

Root Admin Muratus del Mur Posted November 17, 2014 Author Root Admin Report Posted November 17, 2014 Eagle eye - not approved, too simplistic. YOu can make one using leaves but you will have to put more effort into it than that Azrafar - good work, looks adorable :)), bug me ingame or contact ivorak to get an egg to grow!

Root Admin Muratus del Mur Posted November 18, 2014 Author Root Admin Report Posted November 18, 2014 contact burns for the reward. also he will be dealing with such things from now on, his own way. Quote
Burns Posted November 18, 2014 Report Posted November 18, 2014 @ Azrafar, we've already been in touch, i'll get back to you once i get around to activate my WPs. You'll likely receive it later today :) To everyone else, please make sure to use the reputation system on the participants, i'll use this 'community rating' as part of the WP rating when people request the WP reward. Azrafar looks like a big, fat 8 right now :D Other than that, Mur's rules still stand, refer to the initial post to see what you need to participate. Looking forward to your entries :) Jubaris and Azrafar 2 Quote

Azrafar Thank you. I would like to say, that the reputation system is not accurate measure of how much work I have put into it (I posted the link on the mood panel, so many people have seen it and rated it). I would say my is about 5-6 (on the 4-8 scale? o.O ). Quote
Sasha Lilias Posted December 29, 2014 Report Posted December 29, 2014 So I loved your idea of baking a drachorn so much Az that I decided to give it a go myself! (though mine is nowhere near as cute as yours...mine looks kinda scary to be honest...) Mine is made from Salt dough though which, as I found out during the process, has near no structure. So it was hard trying to make sure it all didn't blend in. The red, in case you wonder, is where I tried to make it look like blood spatters...which did and didn't work. May colour it in later but here is my entry! :) http://imgur.com/a/xg5gH and the cooked version! http://imgur.com/a/zocgL I'm not 100% satisfied about it, but it's still alright I hope! :) ~Sasha dst and Azrafar 2 Quote
dst Posted December 29, 2014 Report Posted December 29, 2014 Looks like a roadkill... And the tail umm....very not suited. I do hope it was tasty though :d Sasha Lilias and Lazarus 2 Quote
Sasha Lilias Posted December 29, 2014 Report Posted December 29, 2014 Looks like a roadkill... And the tail umm....very not suited. I do hope it was tasty though :D That genuinely made me laugh, especially the "Hope it was tasty"! I knowwwww. It started off so cute and proud and then over time it just sank and sank...and sank. I thought it was just going to be a puddle by the time I put it in the oven! The tail? Well...I'm not even sure what happened there so we just won't talk about it. As for eating it? It's salt dough! 2 cups of flour and a cup of salt! Unless you want a blood pressure high enough to make your heart explode! That and the horrible horrible taste...urgh. :)) Assira the Black and Azrafar 2 Quote
Burns Posted December 29, 2014 Report Posted December 29, 2014 dst hit it right on the spot, it looks a bit like roadkill :)) But the details are amazing, did you do the 'blood' with pepper? The scales are great, too, and it even has talons :D Only thing i don't like too much are the wings, but that's personal taste... You forgot to name your reward, i think you really deserve it for that entry :) dst and Sasha Lilias 2 Quote
Sasha Lilias Posted December 29, 2014 Report Posted December 29, 2014 (edited) I hate the whole bloody thing (pardon the pun) if I'm honest!! :)) The "blood" is actually paprika! What a waste of a good spice hey! Thank you though. I would like the drach, please. (Changed idea) ~Sasha Edited December 29, 2014 by Sasha Lilias Quote
Azrafar Posted December 29, 2014 Report Posted December 29, 2014 (edited) I'm glad I inspired you to do this. It looks good. A bit creepy (the eyes in the last picture) and well, the tail... you know. :)) Nice details on the scales though. And yes, when you work with dough you soon realise it has much less structure then you think it has. Edited December 29, 2014 by Azrafar Sasha Lilias 1 Quote
Sasha Lilias Posted December 29, 2014 Report Posted December 29, 2014 I tried adding an onion to it's body for shape...it looked heavily pregnant/bloated. I decided against it... :)) Azrafar 1 Quote
Dragual Posted February 6, 2015 Report Posted February 6, 2015 (edited) So, this is my go at this. :3 http://imgur.com/1VM4R03 http://imgur.com/4mAilOd http://imgur.com/z4ntN5T I'm not very good at... Crafts, but snow... Well... :D I'm a little less horrible at snow sculpting. http://imgur.com/DBYuZPc http://imgur.com/8iuCMwR I'd prefer a WP.

Editting in process after a reread of the quest guidelines. >> Did you use a few good old "speedy kick to the sides" to make the arches of where the body and limbs meet? :)) I like it!

Rophs Posted February 6, 2015 Report Posted February 6, 2015 Maybe add some food dye to give it a more "real" look. The untrained eye will only see a blob :P Azrafar 1 Quote
Dragual Posted February 6, 2015 Report Posted February 6, 2015 (edited) Maybe add some food dye to give it a more "real" look. The untrained eye will only see a blob :P Yea, it was hard to really... Get what I wanted. Originally, I wanted to pack on a "head" that was off the ground, but... That proved impossible. Lol Edit: I suppose I could roll a snowball like you do with snowmen, my fear, however is that it will fall without anything to support it. Edited February 6, 2015 by Dragual Quote

Get some long and (preferably) quite thick sticks, stick half of each stick onto the body and then skewer the head on top? :P Quote
