Painting time is once again happening, but nowhere near the time I had before.
Yesterday night I had a spare 2 hours and a pre-based and sprayed Zombie Dragon waiting for some love to join my Kings of War Varangur force.
I didn't want to go for the classic rotten look as I wanted it to retain it's colour from life, in this case a red fire Dragon.
It was also a chance to get the Clear Red (Ohhh I love the smell) out and do some blood effects that I havn't used since the Pit Slave Gang for Necromunda.
I also put together the Ghost Dragon, boy is he a bugger to fit but was well worth the effort.
He'll also give me the chance to try a Ghost/Ethereal style paint job which I haven't done before :)
Well thanks for looking chaps and chapettes.
I think it looks great in red especially with the addition of the tamiya clear red. Sniff it up!
ReplyDeleteTa very much :) *sniffs*
DeleteSmashing, he has a really blood drenched feel about him, love the colour.
ReplyDeleteI can't have anything Zombie without covering it in Clear Red, just doesn't seem right hehe
DeleteI add a little brown ink to my clear red to make the blood a little more real imo.
ReplyDeleteLove how this dragon looks pretty freshly animated. Does make one wonder though - who exactly was tough enough to take him down in the first place! ?
The Clear Red is mixed with Purple and Black Ink to form crusty looking bits and well as some more fresh? blood. It's n ot quite as bright as the picture looks :)
DeleteHe died after eatting 1 too many Goblin Big Macs :)
Cracking work Chico, the blood gore effect is great!
