The Dragon

Long before I first heard some of Nick lenz I have "built" my dragon.
It is a Tanuki. An old vine wood and a field elm in autumn is yellow and green fire in the summer. You have to play

New Pic after the cut

The dragon has a new tail. Otherwise it's very good to him

The flame burns..... Update 2013

The styling ideas are endless. I like it.

It looks likw Papa dragon And baby dragon...Very creative.

How did you do that?

A lot of fun, it seems like a dragon spit fire

The fire is a field elm, planted behind the old wood that has been drilled. The young elm was inserted through the hole and is now the flame.
Thanks for the comments:D 

Update....

The tree is very healthy. However a "dragons flame" brunch become too massive. I like the look on picture here https://i.servimg.com/u/f21/16/21/05/02/dsc_1426.jpg maybe little thinning would improve. That's just my taste.

Thank you Vlad. The Flame is every Year a new .....

If the bonsai stays live ....just joking. I know what you mean Josef.

thats amazing i would love to copy that for dragon bonsai club well done

that is simply radical !!!
i really really really dig the marriage of the old wood and the young elm...

this past spring i threaded some corkscrew willow whips through a cactus bone and am curious what it will do as the trunks expand and fill the interior... inspired by this post, i am taking time out of my bonsai work day to post this thread on it:
