I gave the whole thing a coat of grey (obviously) primer, then painted the body with Adeptus Battlegrey, gave it a Badab Black wash then drybrushed with Adeptus and then Astronomican grey.
The tusks were painted with Snakebite Leather, then Bone and white and the toenails given a similar treatment. The eyes I painted Scorched Brown. Then he was based to match my 28mm Darkest Africa tribesmen.
Yikes!

Excellent results, imagine how much that would have cost in lead.
ReplyDeleteNo need to imagine - I Googled a few metal ones before I spotted this. Made my eyes water a bit!

ReplyDeleteExcellent work! I have a similar project planned with a poundstore dragon for Of Gods & Mortals.
ReplyDeleteOutstanding stuff. If you didn't know better you'd think it was a commercial kit.
