The final size of the Dragon: the height - 11 cm, the wingspan 46 cm, the length of the body from the horns to the tail 31 cm.
The doll contains inside 3 wireframes of aluminum wire: in the wings, the Body and the legs. This allows to pose it any position. The dragon can stand well without resting on its tail.
There is no need for sewing when you make wings, everything is done only with a crochet hook. The wireframe is inserted only in the upper finger of the wing. However, the pattern is designed in such a way that when using a thicker yarn (which may be too heavy for a wireframe), you can insert the frame in all fingers in the same way.
The head is crocheted separately and sewn to the body. Some parts require sewing together, but many are easy joined with a hook.

The pattern contains 33 pages of text and 60 step-by-step photos. There are the steps where I use my original techniques that can cause questions. Therefore, in addition to the text and the photos, I duplicated these steps with videos. There are 4 of them and they are available by the links on Youtube.
