Hi experts, I need your advice on how you would recreate a cake like this? It was hand painted (or airbrushed??) with piping gel accents?? I'm not sure, I can't deconstruct it.

Can anyone tell me how they would do this? Or tell me what the gold gel or icing is.

It was done by the great Cory at Rosebuds Cakes. Here's the link were I found the pic. http://www.perfect-wedding-day.com/dragon-cake.html
