These Medium Clear Transparent plastic dragon scales are completely colorless and fully transparent — like glass or crystal — with no aurora, no color shift, and no tint across each 19 × 28 mm scale face. The clear finish is the most versatile in the range: scales disappear visually into the build, revealing the jump rings, yarn, and background beneath, and adapting their apparent color entirely to whatever lies behind them. On a colored yarn base, clear scales add scale texture and light-refraction without altering the yarn color. In a mixed-color scale build, clear scales can be used to add density and texture without competing with the colored scales around them. Clear also makes an outstanding base for resin-filling, painting, or UV-coating experiments. The most neutral and versatile scale in our scalemaille supplies range. Ultra-lightweight at 0.25mm.

Precision engineered to pair with 15 AWG / 16 SWG jump rings (10 mm diameter). Calibrated thickness keeps scales locked in place — no slipping through ring gaps during dancing, LARP, or active wear.

What Can You Make with Medium Plastic Dragon Scales?

Scalemail & Chainmaille Armor

Connect scales with open jump rings to build scale mail armor, chainmail panels, tops, bodices, shoulder pieces, collars, belts, gloves, and accessories. Clear transparent scales are the ultimate mixing scale — use them to fill panels alongside colored scales without adding competing color, to create gradient fade-outs, or to build completely clear crystal armor for dramatic transparent effect. The medium format creates fine, dense clear scale texture across panels.

Knitted & Crocheted Scale Projects

Add clean crystal-clear scale texture to knitted and crocheted designs. Clear scales reveal the yarn color completely, adding scale dimension and light-refraction without altering the base color palette. Perfect for adding subtle texture to solid-color knitted tops, crocheted accessories where the yarn color is the hero, and fiber art projects where scale texture is desired without color interference. Pairs with any yarn color — the scales become the color of whatever is behind them.

Wearable Art, Mixed Builds & Custom Projects

Clear transparent scales are the most versatile building block for custom and experimental projects — paint them, fill them with resin or glitter, UV-coat them, or simply use them raw as a neutral element in mixed-color builds. Outstanding for gradient designs where clear creates a natural fade, for panel edges where a clean termination is needed, and for any builder who wants the structural scale pattern without committing to a fixed color.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Are these truly colorless or do they have a slight tint?

SS040 is completely colorless — no iridescent film, no tint, no aurora. Pure optical-grade-style transparent plastic. Any apparent color comes entirely from the background, rings, or yarn visible through the scale.

Can I paint or fill these scales?

Yes — the clear transparent surface accepts paint, resin, UV gel, and glitter fills. Clear scales are a popular base for custom color experiments and mixed-media projects.

What are medium plastic dragon scales used for?

Medium plastic dragon scales are ideal for scalemail armor, chainmail panels, knitting, crochet, cosplay costumes, LARP armor, festival fashion, accessories, and mixed-media wearable art.

Will these scales slip off jump rings?

No! Calibrated at 0.25mm to fit 15 AWG / 16 SWG rings (10 mm diameter) — scales stay locked in place even during active movement.

Do you offer combo packs?

Yes — scales-only (200, 500, 1000) and combo packs with matching open jump rings.
