    i would love to be able to present some more photos of the ogres but.. unfortunately both forums where i had them seem to have vanished so.. no way for me to get them back.. i will try to keep updating some more about the carnosaur project as i go , was out for last couple days so no painting was able to be done :p

    i did fine a more detailed photo of one of the mournfangs without the rider so i will leave it in here

    Hello again everyone ,

    after about... 20hour'ish total work into it..(yes i'm slow! i haz excuse! 5 years without picking up a paint brush :p ... fine.. i know is no excuse! still! )

    here is the about 99.99% complete carnosaur itself without the old one and the throne... (those are going to take 20 more hours ahahah )

    First of all the 2 sides far pics (I'm sorry i don't have better lighting atm, its about 3:37 am and just finished this and decided to share it with u guys right away! :p)

    IMG_20180616_031724.jpg

    And the other side

    IMG_20180616_031121.jpg

    Now , Some Closeups so i can try and show a bit better the gradient on the model .. rough with this light! haha

    IMG_20180616_031338.jpg

    IMG_20180616_031308.jpg


    And that's what i could do for now..

    I must admit.. after 5 years without touching a paint brush .. i was preety nervous starting out again with such a beautifull model , because i didn't wan't to ruin it , thankfully (atleast for me) i think i managed to pull through something decent.

    Hope you guys like it , and feel free to comment what u think , i allways love to see all the comments you leave!

    PS: that base was just for ease to paint :p , it will have a nice preety base once the complete model is painted i promise ! :D

    Have a Great day//night everyone!

    See you soon!

    Those are some (expensive) good-looking bases! The Carnosaur looks good too!

    Well then .. The Saurus seem to have smelled new bases with lots of tufts .. so they are slowly moving in to the new terrain and they seem to be loving it !

    In the next photo you can see 10 of them in the new habitat ... shhh don't make much noise ! we don't wanna scare them away!

    IMG_20180620_001810.jpg

    On a more serious note though ...
    im loving how they look in them hope you like it too , im sorry about the lighting quality i need to get some more lights to take pictures.

    But for now this is all i can do, atleast you can get an idea on how they look in the bases


    On the carnosaur part , ive done some work on the throne of the old one , washes have been applied and highlight will start tomorow if all goes well!

    IMG_20180620_002014.jpg

    that's all for today folks ! have a great time and good painting !

    That looks awesome. Love the colors. I might suggest just painting the row of lower triangles a different color, probably darker in shade, to make that detail of the blue triangles pop more. I really think you'll love the result!

    Rough week this one , not much time at hands.. hence not many posts .

    Well.. what have i been up to hobby wyse? My terradons were a complete mess since i got them.. they came painted but since they are metal the paint was bad.. and i don't know what paint the guy used but.. let me say.. that wasnt citadel paints ! ahah it took me quite a few hours to take the most i could out and i ended up with this..


    IMG_20180616_040014.jpg

    Yeah... i realized next it wasnt a good idea ! why you ask? well then .. some days passed and.. i tought..."Let me get glueing these back again" i open the box again and i am like...."aww... shh.... how will i find wich fits wich now???"

    As you might tell there are 2 saurus heads there .. and why?? well when i got them. the dude threw in 2 bodies that had no head .. and i tought i would try it... well.. it actualy fit better than the terradons heads themselves! LOL

    Yeah.. that was a good fun 4 hours trying every single piece to see wich fit better in each body ! ahaha , i laugh now but back then i was almost crying! XD

    The result of those 4 hours was this..

    IMG_20180618_215350.jpg

    Some days after i assembled them.. i was looking at those gaps in the wings and pannic was in place! "I never used GS how the hell am i going to do this!"

    "Am i going to be able to do it? only one way to find out.. buy GS and get your hands at it."

    Today was that day i mixed some GS and did my best to fill those cannyons between the wings and the bodies and ended up with this.. migh not be the best but hey.. better than all those gaps! one day ill learn how to scuplt!

    Lastly a closeup of that body with the saurus head .. i think it looks alright , what about you guys?

    Capturar.PNG

    Thats all for today, ill work on the Carnosaur Rider soon , gotta start painting him to see if i can get that carno done and assembled in one piece!

    Have a great week and sorry for the long post, but i like to try and get the experiences i go through , pass to you guys ! haha hope you enjoy them too !

    See ya Soon!
