- Many of you have been asking me if i could make a dragon head out of wood and you have been heard!
It was personally a pretty daunting project for me, but i am so glad i did it and i am very satisfied with the result!
I said in my prevous videos that i was aiming towards getting one video a week up here on youtube, but i am struggling with sleep deprivation and it does get the best of me at times. However my sleep is slowly getting better and i am gaining more energy to approach projects like this!
I am very excited about the future and i have to again express the gratitude i feel towards everyone of you who has decided to follow me on my art journey. Lets make it epic!

The first template would have been funny to carve.
Haha yeah :D he had so much personality
Holy moly. This thing is awesome. Made something like this on knife handle.
Not sure if you meant awesome here and spelled wrong :D haha
yup but i correct it.:)
Jonasolsenwoodcraft can you make a flower? 🌸

Make 12 different dragon heads and add servos to them. So when anyone comes in a certain room. All the heads seem to follow the person around the room.
A chess set with animals and the eyes glow.
How about carving a tree? They're all unique, so you could make it look however you wanted, and a lot of your projects are forest creatures, so a tree would fit the theme =)
Yeah a peacefull tree and maybe do the leafs in birch burl wood. It would look pretty cool. Could be my personal bonsai peace tree
Jonasolsenwoodcraft ooh, that sounds really nice ^-^ I'm glad you like the idea! =D
@@Jonasolsenwoodcraft 3!
I honestly wouldn't believe this kond of talent exsists if i hadn't seen it with my own eyes.
You are the reason I got into woodworking
Now you're just showing off.. It's gorgeous!!! 😍
Haha thank you! I will make sure to show off more in the future!
Looking forward to watching more of your work. Good luck ahead.
Your woodwork is amazing but so are your drawings! I wouldn’t mind seeing more of them :)
Ah thank you so much :) you know i think its a lot of fun to do both drawing and carving :)
Inspirational .... normally a man of many words but this leaves me speechless
Love it Especially as I am welsh and the dragon is our symbol!!
I would love to see you do a full bodied dragon. I can draw pretty well but I have absolutely no skill in wood carving which is what I hope I can pick up as a hobby when im old and frail hahaha
Hmm that would be very tricky, but very possible. You should go for wood carving right away! All you need is a whittling knife
Looks like your egg hatched!
Yeah it sure did :D i wonder what is next :)
Copper Creek Cuts 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 It was crazy dude
The Dragon head turned out awesome very cool.
I am a true Dragon lover🐉
I find you dragon head super cool 👍
Thank you :D
I used to comment your work by saying awesome but not this time. This is incredible! Gorgeous piece of work,
Thank you very much
Haha i only saw half your comment at first and i was like: «oh no here it comes» but yeah i tske incredible every day 😃 Thank you
Jonasolsenwoodcraft surprise :D
Thank you for making a dragon. It's beautiful.
Thank you for watching 😃
Beautiful work....relates to my favorite poem:
"The dragon that circles the castle was never meant to keep her in, but to lie in wait untill she was ready to escape and fly away on the back of his wings"
Now this is what you call beauty
Birch is one of my new favorite woods to carve in. Even with hand tools it is a wonderful wood to work with. Nice job as usual!
Yeah well i would like to try walnut or some wood that has more figure in it 😃
WOW !! awesome work once again.... why the thumbs down ?????? no pleasing some people....thanks for sharing .
Thank you and well thumbs down because of personal preferrences. however, the video seem to be preforming pretty well :) Thanks for the support!
It's not personal preference, there's no need for people to watch something they don't approve of.
It's petty jealousy. Even the most professional get it. Envy of ideas, of talent, of tools, of subscribers, about being able to share joy and get positive attention. Keep carving Jonas!
While I personally liked the sculpture, people are allowed to dislike something. CZcams recommends videos all the time, and people who may, for what ever reason, decided they didn't like this video or the kind of video it is after giving it a watch. Negative feedback is just as valid as positive feedback.
Putting a like on a video is just as fair as putting a dislike on it. Leaving an approving comment is just as valuable as a disproving comment. Both positive and negative criticism are fair. When you put your work out there for people to see, they are allowed to have and voice their opinion about that work.
I think the only reason people dislike videos like this is because the creation didnt turn out the way they imagined or would of liked it to be
Jens Roger Kristoffersen I totally agree, there’s no need for it. I’ve had it on my videos, the thumbs down and negative comments are always from people with no content on their channel, they are bright Green with envy and they show it here for the world to see... how sad !!
Beautiful Carved Dragon's Head
what an amazing piece of wood art!
suggestion: make an entire horse sculpture out of timber
That first dragon was awesome too XD they'd make the Perfect Team. Tue dorky and clumsy one and the serious and strong one who have the weirdest friendship ever 🤣👍
Thank you! I have actually been thinking about carving the first dragon 😃
Lemi Imel yess please I love this idea ! 😂😍
A great work. Quiet an artist you are. I enjoyed watching this creation.
Thank you so much :) im glad you liked it. it is always tricky trying to make a video as interesting as possible :)
Simply EXCELLENT! ❤️👍
Thank you so much :D
as a carpenter watching you been able to that that sort of craft makes me jealous! keep up the good work I'm looking forward to see what else ur going to craft for us. also I like your humor it breaks up the video. well done. ☺😊
*hehehe, the first sketch would have been good😂😂.* Good job, if you know how to improve yourself!😉👍
Haha it was just a "joke" but a lot of people wants the first dragon :D
Amazing work! This is the first video I've watched of yours and I quite enjoyed it. I love dragons and you made an amazing dragon head! If you also did those sketches, I'm very impressed and amazed! Keep up the amazing work! 👍
Your dragon is so well made you did a beautiful Job
Astounding!!! My two sons, loved watching this. It's not too long video, not too short - just right to keep their attention of what is being made!
Now my day is even better
Thank you Agnes! i will never forget that there is a person behind every subscriber and i am so grateful for the support you have shown me
Well done, my dude!
Thanks bro! stay sharp!
I think you should make the body next!! This is amazing and I admire you a lot! Please continue to inspire people and make beautiful pieces!!!!
your sculptures are incredible!!!!
Thank you very much :D
I’m so in love! I do hope you make the silly dragon as well😜 as for suggestions I believe Id like to see your Phoenix pendant in sculpture form
So cool. How about calling the dragon.. Dremell. Dremell the Dragon.. Sounds good... To me anyway 😃
Haha very creative name idea and pretty fitting :)
Oh my gosh, Jonas, he's absolutely beautiful! Like a real live dragon was turned to wood. You're such an amazing artist and craftsman, i'm so jealous
Thank you so much Friday :) I always try to make my creations look a bit like they could be real and i work with minimalistic designs so it can be hard :)
Deserves 1 million views tbh
This is super AWESOME!! I hope you do a griffin next.
That looks amazing! Also, I like the humor you've put into it with the first dragon and the redraw. Your work is amazing. Ever thought of the challenge of a charging Werewolf or Minnator? Since you seem to like the mythics.
Haha yeah well i almost felt bad throwing the first dragon away. It had so much personality
I have put likes on all your videos. Now I will begin to watch them
wow, so much talent and hard work. Simply amazing
Friggin amazing.
Thank you :)
Really amazing!
Thank you :D
I'm from Thailand I like your work every video.
oh, the first sketch was soo adorable! next time you should make it
This is the coolest wood carving i think i have ever seen oh my gosh :0.
Thank you! That means a lot!
No problem :D.
Can u do a wolf or lion head that would be awesome 👍
I,m just going through all your videos, and they are great, you are very talented, and who are these muppets that are clicking dislike...! Obviously the jealous people.
Half a minute in....dude that's some epic drawing skills
This is cool
Thank you so much 😃🍻
Dude this is badass, you should try doing a wizard or something of that sort. Very good work!
Thank you! a wizard :D maybe a owl wizard or something them :D carving human faces are really challenging
Jonasolsenwoodcraft just a hat, a nose, and a beard w/ mustache, that’s all there is to it bro, as good as you are, you would knock it out of the park!
The piece is gorgeous.
Thank you so much :)
You do awesome work.
Thank you very much :)
that dremel being so close to your thumb gives me heart palpitations
Oh i have hit my thumb multiple times, but no worries it does not leave a big mark :D
Maybe for ur next thing you should do a wolf
BTW your dragon is beautiful
Thank you so much :D yeah i will do some kind of a wolf in the future. i am actually working on my next video at the moment where i make 5 mythical creature drawings :D just finished the first one which became a gryphon :)
OMG I LOVE GRYPHONS!!
I wish I had something like that for my room! I love dragons, and Have a dragon theme in my room. By the way thank you for your amazeballs content. Watching you do the work that you do with wood reminds me of my uncle. He passed away the beginning of 2018, he loved working with wood, and taught me a lot of what I know. Your skills are wonderful and I enjoy watching you work. It makes me happy, just like when I would watch him work with wood. Thank you.
You have no idea how often I've been blowing on my screen to clear the wood dust from your beautiful creations as I watch your videos. Gorgeous work on this one! Thank you for sharing.
I really enjoy your videos, so calming and relaxing. You are truly amazing at drawing, and even more amazing; you're able to bring the turn the drawing into a 3d masterpiece. Really beautiful stuff. I want to see this channel grow! ;D
Thank you! i have been thinking about making my next video out in the woods where i make a cup of coffee and draw a nice drawing outside :)
Your crafts are so amazing in my eyes. You always make the end products look so unique and sleek. It's saddening to see that you don't get enough exposure because you definitely deserve it! I will be browsing your shop soon hopefully after I get a few commissions to get my boyfriend a gift. :) Again, brilliant work! I also hope your camera shyness is cured, and maybe a voice over someday?
Hello thank you so much! it means a lot :)
look at that dragon's smile.. cute dragon 😂
Your artistry is truly remarkable. I enjoy your videos very much. God Bless 💖👼🙏
Amazing work as usual! As for suggestions, perhaps my favourite species the wolverine?
I actually started in a wolverine a while back, but i have not been able to finish it yet. it is very challenging
Avasome great nice good 👏👏👏👏👏
Thank you very much :D
Thru your magical skills, your Dragon has come to life. Brilliant results, he is fierce and majestic.
I love how much work you put into your preliminary drawings! That extra step makes a difference! Dragons are my favorite mythical creature!!! 😍
You should make house sigils from Game of Thrones :D
Just awesome! I'm really amazed. Well done! How about Nidhögg for name? :-)
Thank you! Yeah thats an interesting suggestion 😃
Name don't seem fitting this looks more like a friendly Dragon. :)
You are absolutely right! :-)
It looks incredibly amazing
Absolutely beautiful work
How about something unusual? Like a Superhero hippo.
Haha well it sounds like a cool idea, but i like to keep it a little more mainstream
Or maybe a hybrid, like a Dragon and say a wolf. To combine two creatures would be a really cool result
Jonasolsenwoodcraft - hippos are very popular in the US, especially with Baby Fiona at the Cincinnati Zoo & Botanical Garden.
you do realize that now we NEED the derpy dragon in our life don you?
Haha jaja i guess i have to make him :D
Vacunazo what do we want? Derpy dragons! When do we want them? NOW! 😂
Cool stuff. Great design, great craftsmanship. I love dragon heads, - especially those on a viking ship. Greatings from Denmark☔
Really cool peace of work. I enjoy all your work.
Thank you so much :) I will make something really nice for my next video :)
Amazinggggggggggggggg xd
Thank you so much 😃
😂😂 I loved that first dragon! Gezz the detail here is beautiful. Some of the carving you make I can see on things like the ends if staircases as art pieces
Thank you! Yeah i think i will stick to sculptures a while! It is so much fun 😃
Rashima the dragon. Amazing!!!!!!!!!!😮😮😮😮😮😮😀
I love how almost every woodcarver (who just does it for fun/hobby) has the same type of comedy
Haha thank you :D yeah i have always liked doing "silly" things for amusement
u should do a give away with kind of stuff
Yeah perhaps i will, but my budget is very tight at the moment :)
Name the dragon
Sisu
It's a word from the Finnish language and it means having guts, bravery and going on even when the odds are aginst you.
Cool Sisu. I like the sound of it as well. i will add a name in the description in a few days :)
Beautiful dragon head, I love all your work, such a clever man. thank you for sharing. Angie
I love your carvings so much!!!!
a collection of the zodiacs :)
Ohh that would be cool :)
Jonasolsenwoodcraft I agree with Luna, the zodiacs would give you a series to complete and a range of designs to pick from. Have you done any wood+resin mix carving?
Do a bear head next!!! Not a pendant something just like that
That would be something i could enjoy to do!
A full body animal would be amazing! Ive seen several heads like this or the eagle, but something like a standing bear would be gorgeous :)
très joli et quel professionnalisme pour réaliser une telle sculpture. Il faut beaucoup de dextérité pour arriver à une telle perfection. Merci pour le partage
wonder how it would look if you torched just the surface and sand off the high spots to add shadow and depth to the lines
Yeah it would probably be pretty insane looking. very fierce :)
If youve made a dragon head why not a unicorn head? :OOO
It is possible that i will do that :)
The Mike Stinnett of dragons. Nice stuff!
Thank you :)
I'd really like to see the first dragon! It was awesome!
wood sanding....
Cheers my friend 😂
great final product btw lol i just assumed (carving in the title) as the traditional knife carving lol so dont mind me
That's beautiful! You are very talented.
Awesome craftmanship ... I wish I could be that creative!
Spectacular Dragon head, looks very majestic.
STUNNING!!!
Very well done, Jonas. Thanks for fshowing .
I subscribed after 45 seconds. The dry ass sense of humor is the best kind of humor
An absolutely awesome piece!
Good job!
