It's not typical as you say, It could even be Briglin?

That's quite interesting. I'm no expert, but they have a similar style don't they?
I picked up a tray of pieces (mainly Yare - which are now on ebay) but this dragon defeats me! In fact, I'm growing quite attached to it! I will need to do some research into Briglin - I think this is how enthusiasts are born!

I couldn't find any reference to Berglin ever producing dragons. Anyone know better?

DD that's like saying that it's got four wheels and it's red so it's a Ferrari. It looks to me like a Yare copy - Someone trying top make their own Yare but the overall modelling and detail is just not there. Look at the proportions, the arms, the feet? That tail?

I don't really think it is even trying to look like a Yare Dragon.
It's something else all together, but that was the best I could come up with.

I think it might be by the same person who made this dog and cat but the clay is different.
