The dragon was 2 pounds maybe. I never weighed it. The leather one is crazy light. A few ounces at most.

just got an email back. the seller said it weight somewhere in the 1.5 to 2 pound mark. whatya think? should I get it and paint it?

If you can get it for a decent price you might as well! I have several "rejected" crests laying about. ;)
Sir Wolf:
its up to 20.50 after shipping and i'm finally the high bidder. less than 24 hrs to go so I'm sure to be outbid
Sir Brian:
None of those vinyl goat figures tickled your fancy?
If your heraldry is suppose to be an argent goat I think painting whatever crest you choose
with a metallic silver paint would really set it off as opposed to just a basic white. :-\

na they weren't big enough. most were only 2 to 3 inches at max. my daughter i think even has one now that i think about it in her farm animal barn in the basement. the metal one will do fine I think. I'll be able to screw it onto a board and then maybe use the magnates to attach it to the helmet
how did you guys make the cloth part? is there a certain shape that I'm after or just drape it till it looks cool? ehehhe
Sir Brian:
The mantle?
Well I did a basic one foot by two foot rectangle and my lovely assistant did the
stylistic draping and folding until it looked good. The folds are kept in place with a single,
craftily hidden safety pin. ;)
