Description

I started receiving comments to my dragons that this was all Chinese factory production. That lessons of exactly the same dragons can be found on sale. That this is not my design.
This is my design. I didn't sell tutorials on how to create my dragon model. If you see somewhere a supposed lesson on how to create such dragons, it’s fake.
I tried to make a video on creating a dragon, but I don't know how to shoot with a camera... I'm not very good with a camera at all. Good photo - my maximum. My dragons have no repeats. All dragons are individual. And my new dragon models have a special feature, they have a bead under the tail that is part of the pattern. It is needed there for a certain function. If it doesn't exist, the dragon won't turn out the way it is now.
This is the first time I have come across such comments online. I'm frankly shocked. Why are they doing that? After all, I have very few sales and this is my hobby...
people who make jewelry to order, like mine, in an individual copy, ask for their work from 200+ dollars. I set the price according to the minimum wage rate in Poland. I count how many hours I spent on the dragon, how many materials it took, add the price of the margin on Etsy and set an approximate price.
Therefore the price is not very high. The biggest one is for dragons with natural stones. Because it's more difficult with them. They are more expensive.
If the stone is not real, I write that it is an imitation. But imitation is also more expensive than acrylic beads. Eh...
