Dan

I really wish I knew what this says. Could someonte out there translate for me? I'd really appreciate it.
Dan

Well put.

Thanks Bubba.

Thanks for such a thoughtful remark. I've done many pieces over the years that have never seen the light of day. So to have people enjoying the work is truly gratifying. I must thank people who are gracious enough to take the time to comment. Out of thousands of views, only a few do that. So thank you!
Dan

to answer your question Renee. This one took about three weeks to make. It took a long time to make all the tentacle (horns?). I use stop action to fit three weeks worth of work into three minutes. Takes a long time to edit the video. Thanks for asking.

I appreciate the kind words. I made these teeth out of a plasticene material called "Fimo". You mold them and then bake them in the oven. There are other brands of plastic stuff like that out there, "SuperSculpey" is another one.
Dan

Oh, and i asked you about the paint you use, and you told me that, it's a latex paint.
BBut what kind of paint is that? Is it a latex based paint, or a special paint for latex surfaces?
Could you tell me the brand of it please?
Thnak you for your reply :D
Mark

Latex (which is basically rubber) based paint is the kind of water based paint people use to paint their houses, or most anything else. Sometimes they call it "acrylic latex" because it has rubber and plastic in it. I don't know where you live so I'm not sure what kind of paint is available to you. I buy mine at large hardware stores like Home Depot or Lowe's (big chains in the US). Having said all this, any kind of paint will work. I doesn't have to be latex based. That's just what I use. Some people use spraypaint or acrylic. I hope this answers your inquiry.
Dan

I live in Hungary. I'll take a look at the hardware store here. I hope the paints available for me here will do too.
I hope I will be able to do that shading method you used on your artworks with that dark paint :D
( Unfortunately I don't know the local version of "white glue" :S)

I'm glad you liked this.
Dan

If you think about it, out of all the views, think of how few take the time to comment. That is why I respond, because these are special people.

Take care
Dan

It is a lot of work. But I enjoy doing the art work. And making the video is fun. Thank you for your nice remarks.
Dan

Very nice of you to comment. I will keep it up. Take care.
Dan

I don't know what this says, but the word "best" at the end must be good. I appreciate the comment!

I hope you made it to the site. I do sell them every so often. Mostly I do the art because I can't not do it. It feeds me the right way (if you know what I mean). I appreciate the nice comment!
Dan

I do like the idea of making dragons out of newspaper. I appreciate your comment!

Ya know, sometimes it is difficult to know when you quit. There is always something else to put on the thing. But I think I did okay on this one.

Thanks for the nice remark. I always get nervous before I put one of these videos on the site. Art is pretty personal. So I really appreciate your kind remarks.
