    Bet you used the whole set for all of them! ;)
    Looks good! Do I see it right, that one guy is pushing himself up on one of his comrade's head?

    Around that yes, the idea with my Undead and Goblins was a fast paint but try to make them look good via the basing, I can always add more detail later.

    Good spot on that, I thought a bit of humour was in order due to all the blood.

    Yeah, I could totally see that being a struggle. Regardless, it still looks great! That zombie dragon is quite the challenge to paint as well. Looking forward to seeing it!

    @Crowsfoot : is this the most viewed thread on the entire L-O forum? I can't think of any thread with more views. Either way, it's a testament to all the great content you have produced and posted. :)

    It can't be, can it?

    If so I am truly humbled that everyone likes what has been a fantastic journey back into this hobby and I have loads of new things I want to share with you all this year.

    With out you guys I would have not painted 1/2 of what I have so far, you all keep me going with your comments

    Cheers for that, the cape is pretty easy to do once you get the mixture right.

    This one looks great!
    A classmate saw it when I was visiting L- O on the laptop in the lunch break and he was really amazed about it!
    Great job!

    He looks amazing! Great job! I love the cape as well!

    As always, I'm going to be the bad guy. One point of critique: the way your dragon is mounting the building - kinda looks like he's humping it. Maybe if you attached him to a sturdy flight stand on top of the roof so that he looked as though he just glided over the structure to munch on some surprised victims.

    Just food for thought. Looks great as is though! :spiderman:

    I know what you mean but I wanted it to look like it was crashing in but I just couldn't get it to work, I cut off and repositioned both legs but it just wouldn't sit right. I thought about adding damage and some rubble to enhance the effect but at this point all the models I have painted are for gaming I have yet the skill or patience to do a display model, but hopefully soon.

    wow amazing base he is mounted on. Also I really like how you painted the head of the zombie dragon. His zombie dentist would be proud.
