Lizard and Fish

Posted: October 17, 2012 in Uncategorized

HA!  Were back!  Today I’ve got some finished photos of two fun sets of models.  The first is the Forgeworld Carmine Dragon.  This model was fairly straight forward to build and paint.  The green of the skin was done by basecoating it with the German yellow surface primer and then washed using Gamesworkshops green wash (can’t remember the exact name).  The base was made using the same techniques I used to make the base for the Pounder.  The ground material is secret weapon miniatures leaves and leaf litter, which I’m starting to think is actually just catnip.  Anyways, its attached using white glue that I watered down, covered the base with and then added the litter and mix it together with a brush.  Same with the leaves, sprinkle them on then put the watered down glue over them.  It really helps hold them in place.

Next is FichtenFoo’s Fantastical Fish Shaped Submersible.  Like the Remora you can find this on Industria Mechanika’s website.  For all the etched brass involved it goes together easily enough.  Actually if you have never done brass etching work before, I recommend this as a good starting point.  It’s fairly straight forward and the instructions are pretty clear.  The inside is painted, though I can’t find the shot’s I took of that on my computer.  If I find them I’ll post them.

Sorry if the descriptions are kinda uninspired today, I’m in a bit of a hurry and I really wanted to post these.

Enjoy the photos!
