***Please reach out to me for a custom and don't just by this listing! Prices are just to give you a rough estimate. customs of that range start at that basic price and go up depending on details. time, material, and complexity. The pictures are just examples, and not the actual dragon you're purchasing***
I make several different kinds of dragons. Sizes range from mini (about 2 inches tall and wide), small (about 4 inches), medium (4.5-8) large (10-12 inches).
The dragons come in a variety of color combinations and styles. I would love to work out the details of your dragon with you and encourage you to reach out to me with ideas and customizations you'd like. I will keep close contact with you and update you on the progress through pictures. Mini-small usually take a day or two, medium and large can take several days to a month. If using apoxie things run long since it is air dry clay.
I can give you an estimate, but I won't always know the exact cost until I have finished. If you have an inquiry, I recommend reaching out to me and once the product is complete, I will make your own personal listing so don't purchase this one as it is just a springboard and not the actual item/price. If you do buy the listing, the dragon I make will reflect the price category you picked.
If at the final product check you decide you no longer want the piece, you do not need to purchase the listing, but I reserve the right to post it to my website for someone else to buy. Please do not ask me to replicate another artist’s work or character. I can create something inspired by the color scheme but I will never replicate another artist's work, exact style or design. Thank you for understanding and respecting all artists and businesses!
*******The sculptures and figurines are one-of-a-kind and lovingly handmade. All sculptures, except really small ones, have wire armature and bulked with tinfoil.The clay used is cosclay and pigmented with mica powder, Fimo colored clay, or apoxie. Any paints used are FolkArt acrylic paints. The eyes are also hand painted. I am more than happy to do custom creatures, just keep in mind there will always be variations. The figurines are hand stamped to ensure you are receiving a unique and genuine dragon from me. Small creations generally just have my initials: B.M. Larger sculptures have my full art name: ClayLeafCreations.
You will also receive a Signed Certificate of Authenticity with each figurine/sculpture purchased. The only exception is the glow in the dark hatchlings, unless customized with personal details.

When you receive your new sculpture, please open the package very carefully! Polymer clay and apoxie are durable clays, however it IS breakable! If something should occur where there is a small break, most can be repaired with a small dab of super glue. If there happens to be larger cracks or breaks such as if the piece falls, you can reach out to me, and I can walk you through repairs.
With pieces that are larger and made with apoxie, I highly recommend taking a picture of the box before you open it, and then as you open it so that we can see any damage to the box and how the package was wrapped. Big sculpture I generally double box for extra safety to prevent breaks. Rarely, things happen in the shipping process and if the box and sculpture were damaged by the post office, we need these pictures to file a claim with the post office. I also include some apoxie clay and instructions on how to use the clay for those larger sculptures.
I accept returns on a case-by-case basis, and I must be contacted within the first week of receiving the piece.
*************
The sculptures are not toys, please be sure to keep them out of the reach of children and animals. Broken pieces or small pieces can pose as a choking hazard and should be either glued back onto the figurine immediately or thrown away.
