My oldest DS had a project to do for The Hobbit for his gifted and talented class. He chose to create a scene/setting from the book. It took two weekends (no weekdays) to do it. He and his dad created the mountain base out of paper mache last weekend. This weekend they made the top of the mountain, which is removable, and painted everything.
My contribution to the project was to go in search of a small plastic dragon. Hobby Lobby came through. They have a selection fo products called 'Toobs' which is a plastic tube filled with whatever plastic figurines you might need. Our dragon came from the Knights and Dragon collection.
The eldest insisted on the dragon being red, just as Smaug is in the book. I painted him while the guys took care of everything else. I'll try to post a photo later in the week.
