sorry, this one: https://www.waylandgames.co.uk/avatars-of-war/27136-amazon-warrior-princess?search_query=Amazon+Warrior+Princess&results=3

Okay so I do not recommend this mini: https://images.beastsofwar.com/2015/...r-Princess.jpg. She is the most fiddly POS I've ever had the misfortune of trying to assemble! She's made of very soft...

Hi all

so I have a nice big dragon to paint up...

https://karolrudykart.com/image/galerie/oferta/381d.jpg

I want to build the base up so that it looks like the ship is sinking in a choppy...

Thanks Mike,

So I've actually settled on this mini for the dragon rider: https://images.beastsofwar.com/2015/09/Amazon-Warrior-Princess.jpg

But I also need a rider for a mountain dragon...
...

Hi folks I am looking for the following miniatures:

1. A characterful rider for a Creature Caster Emperor dragon's howdah, the base size is only 20 mm square and there isn't much wiggle room for...

Well, Vallejo Model colour do a Prussian Blue and and Dark Prussian blue, so those might be a good starting point.

or maybe this:...

Great dragons! I especially love the last two! A shame I don't have a 3D printer :(

Thanks! I need to add in close ups of a lot of my older models from before I started to use Flickr.

Ditto! :) As for opening a small museum, does this count?

https://flic.kr/s/aHsjTxs36Z

Yes!!!!! Please!!!!!! :) I love the sea dragon bust but I just bought an emperor chaos dragon so that's my dragon budget spent for now (well until I see another one that I just can't pass up! :) )

Well I can assure you that my videos weren't doctored in any way, and looking at what Bailey just posted, his plangel seems to be on the same par as my dragons. I think part of the issue is with the...

That's what I thought when I first saw them too.

They are ramping up their launch campaign for retail.on Facebook and Twitter. Anyone posting critical comments about the Kickstarter campaign or the quality of the casting is being deleted and...

Ooh nice models!!

Thanks Mike, it's a kind offer but I don't think that would fit between the wings of the dragon and I had in mind more of a single rider rather than as a warmachine. But thank you!

Ooh that could work! Which beastie?

Help me find some really characterful riders for my creature caster dragons! Ideally, reptilian or furry, (but other options considered) preferably that I can pick up separately from their usual...

Thanks. The Golden dragon of chaos was originally a limited edition Ral partha sculpt but has since been re-released by dark sword. I would like to get the Elmore bronze dragon at some point.

Mayyyyybeeeee....;)

Well I suppose this list needs updating again,

Just found this thread and thought I might update this

1. RE Gauth- still on display
2. RP Bridge of Sorrows- in need of repair
3. RP Evil ...

Well as an experienced dragon wrangler, most of these issues are not inssumountable, , I can always drill out, sculpt in and scrape out any mould lines to a certain extent, but the inconsistent...

Afraid so, also there are issues with the emperor which I am just discovering. Remember when Jeremy was saying that these models will be cast in such a way that you can just plug the pieces together...

I certainly won't be giving them any more custom. I am so disappointed with this whole fiasco. The quality is nowhere near that of the old ultraforge dragon . Side by side you can really see the...

Lol! Very funny

From my experience, white metal or pewter miniatures include the likes of Reaper dark heaven range, GW metal figures, and the old metal confrontation pieces to name a few.

Compared to older...

Well this kickstarter turned out to be a complete omnishambles. Two years late, no hub shipping, no painting Buddha dvd, at litany of missteps and broken promises. I finally received my two dragons....

Happy birthday chum!

I am waiting for Tiamat too. The rest of the dragons revealed so far are already available in metal.

Mine has to be:

1. Citadel chicken dragon
2. Heresy dragon
3. Forgeworld emperor chaos dragon. :)

When I stop finding cool dragons to paint! Mind you I am running out of space! :)

Well IMHO if Eric Cantonar hit a fan he should have been sacked also. It shouldn't be acceptable in any situation. If the BBC officials who sacked Clarkson are reportedly getting death threats is it...

She has arrived!! SQUEEE!!! I think I'm in love!! :D

What shipping method did they use? If surface mail the it might take that long but could easily be lost in transit too!

Your conscience is clear then! (as will be your bank account if you get this dragon ;) )

LOL! That's funny!! :D

Ahhhh but have you bought one yet? I just put down the deposit today :D

Oh, oh! It's still available.... And I came back with £300 from my last holiday... :D

Apparently it's 28 inches tall, that's like taller than Gauth and Cang combined!

I know!!! But what an awesome centrepiece it would be. It's probably not even available anymore! :/

OMG!! Just seen this!! It's soooooo awesome!! I WANTs it!!!

http://creative-beast.com/?page_id=115&album=3&gallery=12

You can get your pledge unlocked if you want to add them on. ;)

You guys seen this? http://s1295.photobucket.com/user/creaturecaster/media/pos2_zps53512a73.jpg.html its the WIP possessed dragon from Creature Casters kickstarter.. Freaky or what?

Merry Christmas everyone! :)

Have you decided Mike?

Hey Mike, did you go in for any of the creature caster dragons? They all seem to be shaping up really nicely. The ones I am in for are the two original ones currently, but the possessed dragon is...

Personally I hated what they did to Smaug in the new films. They should have made him with four legs as a proper dragon, this is how both Tolkein and John Howe depicted him and losing the front two...

A large box and lots of good packing material, bubble wrap etc would be my advice. You should be able to wrap the wings and tail to protect then in transport. Good luck! :)

I take Bailey's points, though I do wish that forgeworld chaos dragon were still available, even via a recaster, though obviously a genuine copy would be my preference, wis I had the money to buy at...

Well, if it fits together well and the thinness of the resin doesn't pose too many problems then you still have a nice model at the end of the day. However you might want to wear a good mask when...

I think it's quite likely that this is a recast, the guy is also selling forgeworld stuff too...

What Dragonsreach said! Especially the fire-breathing Trogdor!

It's not the wait that's the issue, it's the uncertainty of whether Andy will be able to deliver given all the sacrifices he has already had to make financially to get this far. Besides, I already...

I never went in for the dragon, but I would still like to get one at some point. Keeping an eye on the dragon thread from time to time in the hope that Andy will eventually get production running...

Yeah whatever happened to Rev & the other old guard? :)

Going to see it today! :)

Oh dear! Hope you have a nice beer in compensation!

Lizardmen! What's not to like about lizards riding dinos? :D

My two original choices haven't changed, I still want the original two dragons. Not sure whether to add a zombie dragon. I also like that jackalope but would have to get a tree woman for that....

The final stretch goal model has been revealed as the "Possessed Dragon" To say it's gribbly is an understatement. This is like a draconic version of The Thing... eeewwwww!!!!

Zombie dragon will be unlocked today.. Just heard on the latest video!

Armour plugs for the dragons have been revealed. No naked dragons for the current two though..

Should strapless dragons become available, I am happy to upgrade my pledge in return for a contribution towards postage, for cmoners in the uk, if you later decide you want to come in for a dragon....

Launched 50 mins ago!! I'm in for both the dragons!!! :D

Congrats to the winners! :)

You twisted my arm!

Thankyou! I have decided the base is looking a bit crap, so I have sculpted a new one:

Can anyone in the uk recommend somewhere? Ideally wooden?

Lol, I spent a while playing them, but the novelty soon wore off! :)

Well, I am delighted to say that I have fought and won with The Conflict, so it will not be going to the tip, but to the display cabinet instead. :)

What price will the dragon of awesome be..?

:D the metal reaper Ebonwrath is mich easier!

This one? http://www.kats-korner-uk.com/dragons_black.html

I seem to recall I had a lot of problems with him due to being a poor cast and as you say, the metal is very hard.

I assembled and painted a cynwall dragon on commission once. It is a bit tricky..

That winged hussar is a nice looking figure.

Yeah those look pretty challenging!

What has been your most difficult model to assemble out of the box? Mine has to be Ral Partha's The Conflict. For those unaware of this classic model, it's a diorama consisting of two dragons locked...

Ooh, nice! Um, i don't have any war machine stuff. I have a games day wolf priest if that's of any interest or, if not, how much are you looking for for the dragon?

2. Lofwyr, iron wind metals http://ironwindmetals.com/store/product_info.php?cPath=266&products_id=3623

I think I may chance it for the dragons! If anyone is interested maybe we could do some kind of combined order to save on shipping & import duty? I live in Norwich but work in London from time to...

Any other uk folk going in on this?

Or I would take cash! :)

You could try some water effects and/or snow? Something like I did for Saphyr? He's the last wolfen in this post:

http://www.kats-korner-uk.com/wolfen_howling_pack.html

I take it there are no distinguishing marks on the feet? :) not sure what the second one is, looks like it should be a white dragon, but can't find one that matches.

More progress:

Sorry to hear that. I bought Ian a ticket to see Lamb of God in Norwich for Christmas and they cancelled that too.. :(

I generally only have one on the go at a time, the rest are boxed away. But then, the way I paint I need to see a bit finished as I go along.. I find it difficult to build a mini up in layers like...

Thanks everyone. This is the metal version. :)

Thanks Zab, still got a fair way to go, with the underside of the wing and the other wing will need the same treatment too, then all the finishing touches. Finally the base will be done :)

Thanks all, the manufacturer is still a mystery to me! :)

Aww sorry! You wanted a yay or a nay though! :p

Just found this thread and thought I might update this

Hugs! Sorry this has happened.

Paint, brushes and basing material. I have more unpainted lead than I know where it is (I have buried some in the back of the dreaded cupboard under the stairs) so no real need to buy new minis at...

Personally, whilst it is a cool monster, I wouldn't be interested in it, as I would rather spend my money on dragons! :D good luck with it though! :)

Thanks both, thought I would give him a nice hoard to watch over. :)

Finally finished and based.

Hi folks, so I am working on ebonwrath at the moment. Officially, he is a black dragon, as he very much reflects the art work of Todd Lockwood form WOTC D&D range. But I didn't want to do him as a...

Would I be able to buy just one or two dragons (especially the riderless one if you do that)? I have no interest in big piles of other minis, just the dragons... :)

I usually have the tv on in the background. Though I may listen to imagine dragons whilst painting ebonwrath... :)

+1 to that, love the dragons, but would have to get rid of the saddles!

Oh. That's reassuring! :)

Sulk...:( :( :(

Or, you know, you could adopt him out. I will give him a good home!!

Very cool! I do like that dragon too, but Mierce has a bad rep doesnt it?

Have you painted yours Mike??

Happy birthday!!

True, not that talented though!

Want!!!

I agree wrt LOTR, spent two years reading those books and wished I hadnt bothered, but I loved the three films. three films for the Hobbit is excessive though!

I did like the bunny sled, beorn and those spiders were suitably scary! Just sad about what I hoped would be the ultimate dragon! :(

Firstly, I am amazed there has been no discussion of the Hobbit on here so far. Secondly, I dont have an issue with most of the points you raised, Smaug does talk, the lip design worked for me as did...

Great stuff! I particularly like the otter! :)

Ian says it has bombed at the cinema...

Probably this one, no idea of the manufacturer, but have not seen any others:

http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7329/10930742263_ab0c78c706_b.jpg

LOL nice, I like your new friend

I do hope there will be kits :)

Anyone seen this? I would love to get my hands on some kaiju minis :).... Does anyone know if there will be a line based on this film or resin kits or anything? :)

Cucaiothegreat, minis arrived safely, thank you so much. Will post pics soon!

Posted mine today too! :)

Fantastic work! :)

I think it's always been hard to sell minis purely as display pieces. The only luck I ever had was an archaeon which was basically, a new release, a cool looking model and chaos, so naturally someone...

When I came back about a year or so ago, it really did feel very quiet on here. There used to be a time when there were so many new threads in general discussion that you couldn't keep up. There was...

Considering how many hours went into the pice, that's a pittance for such quality!

Thanks KruleBear! The problem with doing the same with the new Kaladrax of course it that it is made of plastic.., :/

"raises a glass of vino"

Is Kaladrax much bigger than nethyrmaul? Wondering why such a big price difference? Tbh not entirely sold on the new Kaladrax, but I do like nethyrmaul!

Inspiring words Laurence, glad you have turned your life around :)

Are the big guys cast as one piece? How's it done?

Netymaul and the new Kaladrax are just crying out to be resurrected like my original Kaladrax..
...

Nice! Hope this will be available separately!

Haven't done one of these in years, but I'm game!

Kittykat23uk uk, will post to the world :)

Lol yes I was rather disappointed in the last series of Who, but that last episode got me interested again! :D

Some great artwork.

Aw sounds like a nightmare! Stick with it though dude, I'm sure the hard work will be worth it!

Thanks, those remind me of some of the old grenadier kits. :)

I still have a mountain of unpainted lead lying about the house too, including loads of wooden and a fair few dragons. Speaking of which, I haven't seen many new dragons released of late. Anyone know...

I'll bet! =O_o=

Great work!

Lucky! I still don't have one of those!

So, yep I'm painting again! Another dragon no less, but during my periods of hiatus from painting I'm usually either off travelling, or working on a photo book of my previous trip. So I last went...

Thanks! The last one I did was Cang the improbable. :)

Thanks! The UV Paint I got worked quite nicely on Cang the Improbable so definitely worth persevering with it. :)

I'm so sorry! I had no Idea why you had been away! Hope things are looking up for you now. :)

As to the size:

Here are some comparisons, Golden Dragon of Chaos:

Thanks! I still don't know who made him. My thought was alternative armies. Could be a garage kit or something.

Indeed can't make any guarantees how long or frequently I'll be around though. :)

Thanks for your encouraging words guys :)

Ooer! =O_o=

"waves" long time no see Chrispy. Done any comics lately? :)

Hiya been away from painting for a while. But have been progressing my enormous metal dragon recently and thought I would share a couple of WIPs.
...

Hi Moe,

No still have no idea who made this dragon. It's not the most beautiful sculpt I have seen, so I'm guessing it's not going to be a well known manufacturer. :)

Best:
- Having two amazing trips to Madagascar and Zimbabwe
- Painting Cang the Implacable and finishing off my Kaladrax Reborn sculpt plus a little manticore model from Raging Heroes.

Worst:
-...

Thanks everyone, keep the ideas coming :)

The only things that would have interested me would have been the new dragons, especially the clockwork one and Nethyrmaul. :)

Hi folks,

Haven't been around much since Cang as I've been focused on other things. But once Christmas is over I might see if I can progress my "enormous metal dragon".

So any thoughts on how...

Thanks Freakinacage and Chern Ann! And Kathrynn thanks for the tips. :)

I haven't sealed it no. Actually thanks for pointing that out, I normally use a matte varnish spray but I don't think I will risk it in light of what you have just said. To be honest I find resin...

Hey I don't own the patent on glowy models girl so you knock yourself out! LOL. The vallejo fluo orange glows a sickly pastel orange by the way. I haven't tried the other colours in the range but the...

I would think if yiu can put together a titan, you should be able to put Cang together.:)

Thanks, yeah these big kits take a lot of work. But I have form, I've assembled a few big dragons in my time. Including a forgeworld fire dragon and Ral Partha's "the Conflict".

Expect to swear.... a lot!!!

Here's how I approached her. The model has a lot of surpless resin "tags" that take a lot of sanding down, in some case I even took a junior hacksaw to the pieces....

Thanks everyone. I'll try and get some more close ups under normal lighting :D

Hi folks,

She's finally finished, Cang the Improbable (also known as Cang the implacable) Coolminiornot's enormous dragon of doom!!!

So I was inspired by Outlander's Moorwen in painting this...

Some of the comments about the quality of submissions are really harsh in my opinion.

I can't see how to vote, am I missing something?

I can't imagine that you'd need instructions for one of these models. I have never seen any of my models come with them.

Do you prefer male or female figures? Neither,...

Awesome! LOL

There's two GSDs on there at the moment. One NIB and one has been assembled and painted by the looks of it. Personally I don't see what the fuss is about this model myself. It's okay but I wouldn't...

Yes it's much quieter on here than it was when I first joined. It's a shame, but I also drifted away for a few years before returning to painting SO I can't really complain.
