Default A Mother's Love

Took awhile to do this one,between yard,garden,being lazy.
She has been watching those egg's for a long time. The small one might be a runt,or she ain't been sitting on it as much to make it flat.
Made from two 3 by 4 by 12 block's of basswood.
Dragon is 1' L-7" H-15" W- from wing tip to tip.
Base is 7 piece's scrap glued together 16" L-6" H-4" W
Together it is 16" L-10 1/2" H-15" W.
Loading some pics I HOPE!!
