I am in love with "How to Train Your Dragon" and its main dragon character, Toothless. I love it so much that I created my own dragon, an albino Night Fury that I call the Dawn Specter.
Here is my plush of my beloved Specter who comes out to about 18" long from nose to tail. I found an interesting fabric to use for him - a stretch material that has a thin plastic layer sealed onto it. I have no idea what it's called. I stuffed him with rice and cotton, so he's like a bean bag. The eyes are Sculpey and painted with acrylics.
I saved the pattern that I made for Specter, so if there is any desire for it, let me know and I'll try to remember to post it. No promises. I don't think I will be making another like him for quite some time seeing how this one alone took upwards of eighteen hours of hand stitching.
By the by, I know this is my version of fan fiction, so I have no rights to the Night Fury design, but please let me know if you plan on reproducing the Dawn Specter. Thanks a bunch.

Thank you! I did a bat plush not too long ago and the wings alone took around ten hours to complete. With that in mind, I really wanted to go a different route with these. Instead of creating each finger in the wings like in my bat (plus there are six fingers in a night fury wing) I decided to give the suggestion of them being there with a running stitch. The same method is repeated in the fins, so it maintains a consistant technique and texture. Turned out pretty well, I think.
