I'm thinking of the amount of candy needed to fill this, Wow!
I was thinking of making a treasure chest or something inside it so that the candy wouldn't get stuck in the moving parts should they be added.

Although it's so big that if it's strong enough we could put plastic bottles of liquor in it haha

--did I mention this was for adults haha--

You could make it like Russian stacking dolls: inside the dragon is a treasure chest, inside the chest is something else, and inside that, and so on. Once you get through all the pinatas, there’s room for only one piece of candy. My Dad used to wrap Christmas presents that way. ROTF ROTF

When is the party? I'm there!
 
I made a lot of progress last night with the new boxes from work. I spent most of it cutting strips. Though I'll have to re work the back feet and I forgot to splay them out to have toes haha

I'm really proud of my method for getting the tail fill.
This is the bottom one where each of the lines match up. Next I'll do the top the same way.

Lastly I played with the neck to test out my weight theory. It didn't really work....

I should really be changing for all these feet pics lol jkjk

Got the tail done along with another leg and another neck. I did the tail different as instead of glue ing the whole seam I used a tab approach. I'll have to go back and add some tabs for where I only tacked it down as seen in the last picture. For the tail that also means I cut out the top piece of the tail using the same method as the bottom piece for measure draw cut.
