For some time now I have been harbouring an idea for a small diorama for my warrior princess Kalee. As part of my God of Battles undead army, she holds her rightful place at the head of her very own skeleton regiment, but I also wanted to be able to display her on her own.
So I got cracking creating a 60mm display base, including her very own special steed. There is a hole cut into the display base to accommodate her 20mm square gaming stand and the chain is removable (made from a length of very fine bracelet chain)…
Man, the dino-mount and base look incredible!
Thank you Mr. Arkie, I’m really happy with how they came out. My paint jobs are always a little experimental and full of ‘happy accidents’. The base was very simple to do, but these new grass tufts that are available look really effective.
The dinosaur has a nice Roger Deane (the guy that did all those prog rock album covers in the 70s) sort of feel to it. Which is awesome.
What brand are those tufts? They are quite nice.
They are a mixture of ‘Army Painter’ Highland and winter tufts. They are quite expensive for the small amount that you get but I really like the effect they give.
Well, they look great. I remembered a tutorial on making your own tufts from static grass -maybe you’d be interested in it: http://lascannonslances.blogspot.com.au/2011/11/make-your-own-static-grass-tufts-step.html
Excellent! Thanks for the heads-up! 🙂
