It’s 5he Weekend!
Some interesting items ahead…
My dragon is going to be based on my real dragon – shown here looking a bit duller than normal…
Gerry should go with the colour-shifting paint on a limited set of key scales, with duller scales elsewhere.
Gerry’s project is not found… is it “friends only”? @avernos
I thought you were his special little fwiend 😉
Maybe it’s a “OTT Team” thing… IDK 😉
It’s got to be colour shift, gold to copper sounds fantastic.
100% this.It will look awesome.
Welcome back guys. Looking forward to the virtual expo will be tuning in for that. I like the scheme Khursan have gone with as it looks a little like Sméagol from Flight of Dragons. If it was me I’d take that lovely dragon and paint it up as Brayagh possibly the meanest dragon. My vote for painting the dragon would be the colour shift paints as picked some up from the online store and I’m hoping Gerry will do a tutorial on this dragon and it’ll give me the confidence to use them. Very much looking forward to blood bowl… Read more »
Happy weekend all.I’m very excited about SAGA Age of Hannibal dropping,my Caesarian romans will have a third system to conquer after SPQR and Infamy,Infamy.I must be getting old,but i’d rather Black Orcs were Blockers in a Boyz team rather than a team of their own with a few gobbo’s thrown in for gits and shiggles.
WooHoo! It’s the weekend…er!
For me – Nile Crocodile scheme.
It does point me in mind of Lofwyr, the Great Dragon from Shadowrun. Maybe he’s about to “discuss” another corporate takeover by his corporation Saedar Krupp, in his own’s Dragon Den.
“Never make a Deal with a Dragon.”
Not sure about the rest of the model but I think we just need to know what colour Gerry is going to paint the Dragons Voonerables
I will definitely vote for Nile Crocodile.
Gotta be Gold. Bling Bling.
I’m voting for the Nile crocodile. Take the leap with Just So stories according Rudyard Kipling with his telling of The Elephant Child and the Great Grey Green Limpopo river to give life to that wyrm… lol.. yet another name to be debated among the rest
Get a Landshark for @warzan
Goblins! Snotlings! ALL THE GREEN DUDES!
I just saw “Republic of Rome” and my brain made “Republic of Chrome” out of it…. I think I just found the name for my Indomitus Necron force… oO I need sleep. Or coffee…. or both.
Weekend again. Thank $DEITY for that. I vote Nile because WYVERNS are not among the coloured dragons so would be more “natural” looking. Grognard? Moi?
+1 for Otherworld minis. I have a few villagers on the painting table right now for Rangers of Shadow Deep (and one of their rangers will be my Ranger).
I just had to look up the old Guildball video @warzan mentioned… that looks sooooo weird and from a different dimension XD https://youtu.be/ODKTPN6LCXg
I think a Nile crocodile colour scheme gets my vote for the dragon. I think the colour shift is a great idea, but might be too much for a model that size?
Yay the weekender is upon us.
Loving the word “fun” pronounced in the same way an ex-girlfriend of mine pronounced “football” (or the tone in which anyone else might pronounce “bodily seepage”).
Otherworld’s Pig Faced Orcs are absolutely amazing (well they are Kev Adams sculpts)… just a shame I’d have to sell most of my organs to afford an army of them. Their Kobolds are lovely as well.
Nile Crocodile is just too awesome an idea. Really settled into reality.
Blood bowl has gotten me really interested, already working on a halfling team and some forge world stuff.
It’s the Weekender! Hooray*!*!*!*!*d I always look forward to this time of year as new Infinity usually comes out very close to my birthday. (which is next week) As for the @avernos Dragon color choice….. I vote for the ‘color changing paint’, I don’t know what to call it as I heard it called ‘Color Flip’ and ‘Color Shift’. From the Otherworld miniatures collection I think I most have that large Demon Statue that is very close to the one on the cover of the original AD&D Players Manual. Really looking forward Firelock Games new kickstarter ‘Raise the Black’. My… Read more »
Gerry just about could fit in here lol
go for the flip paint Gerry.
&exph=1333&expw=2000&q=Flip+Paint+Ccar+Olor&simid=608038305398064467&ck=EFF9AA6099E51DF25A0458BF7A63FBD9&selectedIndex=2&FORM=IRPRST&ajaxhist=0
Like Warren I was on board with the flip paint but then saw the nile croc and changed my mind.
Looking forward to seeing how this turns out.
Also looking forward to new blood bowl, ive enjoyed playing orks to date, but was considering playing some wood elves in the future, really like the dynamic scuplts
Really enjoyed the show. Now if Gerry had opted for the frilled neck to the dragon I would have said that a magical, metallic paint scheme would be cool. However with the armoured neck I’d vote for the Nile Crocodile pattern. Of course there is a solution… build another wyvern but with the frilled neck and paint that one up in the alternative paint scheme? Whichever choice, it probably needs a pile of treasure to guard?
Otherworld miniatures are great and easily fit in with similar genres such as Dunkeldorf Miniatures and Diehard fantasy miniatures.
I’m liking the look of the new Bloodbowl Undead miniatures, but who can resist a load of orange haired dwarves and a death roller!
