It took me a while to figure out what to do for the dragon talons and spikes around the head. The breakthrough came when I found some plastic ninja swords and scythes at the Dollar Tree store. I was able to easily cut the scythes to the right length for a talon, and then used the hot knife to cut a slot in the feet. The pile of talons looked like I'd just cut a huge cat's nails.
The dragon has three spikes on her head. the placement of these for me was crucial. Looking at other puppets on the web they tended to be lots of variations as to where they ended up. I referred to the movie stills and placed the plastic ninja swords as best I could, cutting a slot for them with the hot knife.
