Finally finished my Golden Dragon of chaos!

[kittykat23uk]

Happy New year! I\'ve finally finished my Golden dragon of chaos. This dragon was originally a limited edition produced by Ral Partha. I had coveted one ever since I saw a box set in my local gaming store. Unfortunately I didn\'t have the spare cash to buy it at the time. Thankfully I managed to source one from someone on here. I have to admit it has taken me a long time to get this painted because constantly trying to paint in shades of gold and brown can be really soul-destroying. He\'s never going to be as perfect as I would like but I\'m moving on to other things now, so I\'m calling him done for now. I think to be honest it could be better but I\'ve pretty much run out of steam with it now and If I didn\'t leave it and start a different mini I wouldn\'t have got anything else done. So now I\'m working on a devourer.

All the best

Kat

A dragon! Squeee! :flip: A nicely painted one, too! I bet those scales were a nightmare - I can see why you\'d want to draw a line under it after a point. Did the votey thing.

Thanks for your kind words. It was a slog and it was not helped by my mum dropping an easel on it part way through.... :cussing:

He looks fabulous! Very well done.

I was lucky enough to get one in trade *years* ago and he\'s still in the box. He\'s my favorite (metal) dragon and I doubt I\'ll ever have the skill to paint him. So nice to see someone else appreciative of his awesomeness!

Thanks Nadine. No point keeping him in a box- Get him out and try your best! :beer:

This looks lovely, I voted for it on CMON. Colours look great against the snow base!

Striking!

I\'d love to see a pic of the scales underneath the chest and tail. Great colors, too.

What a surprise Kat, you doing a dragon lol

Great piece - Love how it stands out against the simplicity of the base.
What did you use for the snow?

Thanks All. Logan, well If I\'m goping to have a come back what better to start with than a dragon. Plus its about the only mini I\'ve had on the go for the past few years!! I used woodland scenics snow mixed with PVA glue for the snow. :beer:

But at least I\'m painting again. Nearly got my devourer and hyena finished.
