So I have decided to take our dragon and make name tags for the show.  These are not finished yet and i am thinking I might have to add a backer for support.  Comments always welcome.

Nicely done Cherie.  A backer would help I think with both the stability of the name tags and making the names pop out a bit more from the dragon.  But of course this is just my opinion.

From a graphics point of view...they are great but too 'busy' and somewhat hard to read....the addition of a neutral backer will help greatly!

I agree about the backer, it's kind of hard to see the names. Dragon looks fantastic.  :)
