I like the tortoise prosthetic, and the relative sizing chart.
This image made me think up a story, which I will summarise after the thumb:
![[Image: 10296.jpg]](http://monstergirlbooru.com/index.php?q=/thumb/10296.jpg)
Initial setup is your standard fantasy kindom under dragon threat, hero who slays it gets half the kingdom and the princesses' hand in marriage... but while staging out of the capital city and making various hunts through the area for its lair, the protagonist discovers that the princess is a shrew and the king is just barely on the acceptable side of oppressive. (He should be a somewhat experienced adventurer at this point, not the stereotype barely-trained farmboy, though not necessarily to the degree a D&D character would need to be to solo a dragon.) Still, having a dragon preying on the cattle and demanding tribute can only make it worse, right? He can worry about fixing things for the subjcts when it's his actual job, if he even lives through it. Then he meets a (female) ranger who says she has some ideas about the dragon lair, and discusses the situation while leading him to a secluded mountain pass - which takes several days on foot and she's impatient with the slow pace - yadda yadda flirting and falling for each other, the n the reveal which you expect by now: she's the dragon having shapeshifted, and proposes a different plan: He takes her hand in marriage and together sieze all of the kingdom, combining the royal treasury into her hoard and putting him on the throne.
It wouldn't really work as shown in the time scale that would be neccessary, but the basic idea is there...
