The base of your dragon makes him look much more menacing and threatening. If I ever find a cheap one to buy I'll borrow your idea. (Btw I had found a metal GW Dragon for 25 euros at an independent retailer and I didn't buy him....instead pursuing my stupid Haradrim endeavor)

OK, I understand. I'm always hunting for cheap models too, if I've got the budget left to pay even that (only 100 euro's per half year

)

Ye i kinda understand the budget thingie. Second handed figs really saved me out lots of money. It's a pain to strip the paint of all the models but in the end, if u got a good deal u could gain more then tripple the money.
Saturday facts, i was like thinking of rounding up my collection slowly. But i am pretty sure if there are still models left in the stand i went last year - i buy some more. There were some nice models there i left because i had enough left to paint. I regret it that i just didn't take them with me. It will be a bad day for my wallet again. I want a lotr patch, for on my cap. Gonna buy one of those minimates if they still have some.. i really hope Tolkienstore is there again.

Nice work on the Warg rider... really like the 'tiger' idea.

Not very good pictures but from what i see the tiger idea looks cool, but I really love the carcass on the dragon's base!

I actually really like that tiger-warg

. Cool idea. I like the bowstrings too

Your pictures seem to be a little over-exposed, you might be able to fix this by taking the pictures from a greater distance (to reduce the flash) and then cropping them on an editing program.

Ty all for the comments, ye i believe i really gotta work on taking pictures. But ye... i think i said it b4 some times already.. i never get to actually doing that.
I tryd a picture from a little distance but it looks quite dark (played a bit with the levels in photoshop to tune it down)

a little spider and some skulls with greenstuffleftovers

Sculpting corpses/skeletons on bases-excellent work!
Tiger warg: nice idea. You see considerable variation in the fur on animals of the same type - African lions can be all shades from red/brown through to 'white'. Then I thought of cats and domestic dogs, or even wolves. So many colours and pattern possible. Maybe something like the African wild dogs might suit wargs? Or something like snow-leopard for wargs in the mountains? It would be a terrific challenge to paint but the results could be stunning.

been messing around a bit with the dragon model..

I really ment messing around

Not done yet, let's say i am hoping i still didn't :dmf:

it up yet.

garmenhord · **Posted:** Tue Oct 23, 2012 1:30 pm

another small update - i just mashed up some devlan mud on it

still gotta take a look at that belly tough. I think it might help to drybrush it a bit. It's taking to much attention.

I really like your creativity

The mouth isnt done I suppose? since his tongue and teeth are kinda the same color

garmenhord · **Posted:** Tue Oct 23, 2012 3:06 pm

Ty mate, don't know if it's really creative to put some paint on a model. But's good for colour studying. Mouth wasn't done yes.
This is the as good as finished product.

I am quite fond of how he turned out. Much better then i expected. I did struggle with picking out colours tough.

I've been gone too long and have missed quite a bit of your work! Excellent job on everything from the Sculpted wraith to the fantastic painting of this dragon!

Love the tiger warg. The dragon base is crazy big. Cool stuff

garmenhord · **Posted:** Tue Nov 06, 2012 7:33 am

ty for the comments guys.
New project for the sculpting challenge.

I removed one of the legs and resculpted it. I really need to get a good anatomy feeling. The previous one was placed way to high. Now i think i might still have to thicken up some of the other legs. And then i can to sculpt the black drawn parts. Then there is still the hobbit to go for.

SidTheSloth · **Posted:** Tue Nov 06, 2012 8:05 am

wow, it looks exellent so far! :yay:

garmenhord · **Posted:** Tue Nov 06, 2012 8:09 am

Ty sid, how is lobelia comming along?

Started on my last 10 gobs

garmenhord · **Posted:** Mon Nov 12, 2012 7:10 am

No progress on the painting of the gobs so far; but i did sculpt a bit.

It's not in the right position on the base. But it's handy to let it stand between the two pieces of wood i put on it. (Those will form a fence afterwards).
Now back to working on my comic - if i work well i might finish of the linedrawing of p30.

SidTheSloth · **Posted:** Mon Nov 12, 2012 10:24 am

haha!

exellent!
i'm really looking forward to seeing him finished!
