The Sun Dragon emerges in a blaze of heat and light. Ancient, powerful, and carved with flame-like detail. Inspired by an Egyptian-style sun god fused with a dragon, it feels like a myth pulled straight from history and forced into the open between the pages.
This model comes with two different head options:
One with slots for 12mm craft eyes
I use these from Amazon: https://a.co/d/b2UkkSP
One with multi-colored printed eyes that can also be hand-painted
The tail comes as a separate piece that matches the look of the head. All of the Dragon Emerging Book Nooks share the same universal box design, so you can mix and match dragons without needing a specific box for each one.

Note: Standard tree supports wrap the tips of the horns and nails better than strong tree supports, helping reduce failures. Two walls are more than enough for a decorative piece like this.
