Personal Favourites from my moblog



"And as you cross the circle line,
Well the ice wall creaks behind
You're a rabbit on the run.
And the silver splinters fly
In the corner of your eye,
Shining in the setting sun.
Well do you ever get the feeling
That the story's too damn real
And in the present tense.
Or that everbody's on the stage
And it seems like you're the only
Person sitting in the audience


Skating away, skating away, skating away On the thin ice of the new day"

Two Dragons with Terrain

(viewed 1899 times)
Bookmark and Share
I have well over a dozen dragons; these two were among the first I ever did. The wood dragon is all plastic. The terrain found wood, screwed to a wood base. Styro mushrooms, some real bits of flora and packaged ground cover. The water dragon is metal, except for the wings which are plastic. Terrain built out of styro, cheap glass candle plate for the pool and for the water, I used Realistic Water and Water Effects.

Thanks, Twiglet. :)

Lots of fun, Viv. Lots of work too, these are very time consuming. I have a thing for dragons though. The more vicious, the better. :D

Thanks Shitake!

They're brilliant! I got dragon envy too!

The bases make all the difference sometimes. Would be so cool if you really could keep them in the garden :)

Thanks, Mara.

Thanks, Eye-C and Dhamaka. The Water dragon isn't well shot, I never get shots of it right. Dhamaka, I have one dragon that's done in your shade of blue - it's broken at the moment, thanks to the cats, but I'll post pics once I repair it.

Thanks, JC! The water dragon terrain was the first serious one I built and carved. A lot of fun, that. It would be cool to keep them in the garden, but our weather would dissolve everything!

Thanks, Orbit.

Thanks, Crickson!

Ooh very cool! These are quite spectacular.
I used to get dragged around war games conventions in a previous life. I'm afraid I never got into the gaming side of it but I started collecting and painting tiny, tiny farm animals to pass the time. Don't remember where they are now but they were very small indeed.

Caine says:

I never gamed, either. I just enjoy the painting. I never did farm animals, but I've done plenty of the teeny tiny too close to microscopic stuff. :D
