Jewel Dragon

Mon dragon australien est finalement arrivé plus tôt que prévu.
Il a été très bien emballé et malgré son voyage d'un antipode à l'autre, il est indemne (et avec son certificat). Certainement acheté en Angleterre, voir aux Etats-Unis, ce dragon a dû parcourir une distance équivalente à 1 tour du monde si ce n'est plus o_O.
Il n'est pas près à repartir de ma vitrine ce petit globe-trotter ^^.

Nom : Jewel Dragon - EN2135
Collection : Enchantica by Holland Studio Craft
 : 1999 Annual Piece
Sculpteur : Andrew Bill
Taille : environ 25cm d'envergure et 21 de haut

Closely related to the Sky Dancers, the Jewel Dragons were a fabulous breed of creatures, used by the holy men of Eyesand to celebrate the “fruits” of the mountains. These colourful dragons would be adorned with gold and precious stones, and fly in the special thanksgiving ceremonies. Dazzling aerial displays would accompany the lighting of great beacons and the sound of mighty trumpets. Over a delighted throng the dragons would swoop and soar, their ornamental wings sparkling in the light of the dancing flames.

Vansal

Vansal.jpgMon 16ème dragon de Dragonsite Collection est arrivé ce matin. Comme The Sentinel c'est une peinture à l'origine (voir l'image à gauche). Bon je commence à avoir quelques problèmes de place maintenant ^^'

Nom : Vansal - JB20100
Collection : Dragonsite
Edition : ImaginistiX
 : 0234 sur 2000
Sculpteur : Julie Bell
Taille : environ 37,5 cm de haut et 25 de large

The land is hushed. The sun spreads warmth and light to the floor of the ancient forest. Deep within the cover of the majestic trees, there is a place where neither human nor beast dares to venture. Here lies the lair of the mighty dragon, Vansal, the largest and most feared creature in the kingdom before time. Things that reflect light into the colors of a rainbow carry this magnificent beast. Its massive size and awesome strength strike fear into the hearts of even its bravest foes.
The high wizards have commanded Vansal to protect the forest's balance of nature against all intruders - a monumental task, as the forest stretches to the end of the land and is constantly invaded by those seeking to remove its treasures.
Late one afternoon, after travelling a great distance, Vansal returns to its quiet lair for a short respite from the never ending role as protector. Perched on a gigantic rock, Vansal lowers its massive head to a crystal clear pool, fed by a rushing waterfall that spills down a boulder strewn rock face. With surprising gentleness, its forked tongue caresses the surface of the water, drawing energy into its huge body.
Soon, it will be time to return to the journey...
