Here is one of 8 converted terradon figures that were made by combining some GW skinks and I-Kore Viridian teradactals. I-Kore went out of business once or twice They had all sorts of dinosaur riding guys who looked like Catachans. I was desperate to get my flocks going right away, so I used these as a start. Right now I am scratch sculpting a bunch of new terradons (yes, pictures at some point ), out of the same Apoxy sculpt I used for the stegadons. My ultimate goal is to have 30 of them. Demons don't like to get pooped on by lots of terries! This is an image of one that is about 70% painted :
Yeah it is a somewhat evil looking mount, but still looks really cool. And anything beats the GW ones.
I do have a step by step set of images I am hoping to post soon. I did a six step painting demo prop for Adepticon this year, which had the same saurus warrior shown in various stages of the painting process. I will take some pictures of them and post that here. My painting techniques change a creat deal over time, since so many figures are being painted. It sometimes changes drastically when a new material is introduced, etc. That happend back in March of this year. The basic philosophy is to start lighter and shade/tint darker. I am a watercolorist by training, so that was only a natural progression for me.
