This enormous dragon sculpture by Kreatworks is available for sale on [Etsy](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/arcade-clock). It's definitely not for the average consumer as it stands almost 11-feet-tall and is selling at over $10,000. But, if you have a massive cathedral ceiling and enough dough to spend, it would certainly make an epic addition to the house.

Despite the massive scale of this dragon sculpture, no intricacy is spared. The creature contains amazing steampunk-inspired detail that represents an accurate portrayal of a dragon anatomy -- not that there is an official biological diagram of this fictional beast.

Kreatworks has a few other pieces available on his Etsy account such as a [steampunk Alien and Predator](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/unnatural-history-museum-of-singapore). This dragon takes the cake for scale and price tag, however.
