Magc8Ball Posted August 30, 2010 Share Posted August 30, 2010 Thanks for the commentary that people have provided over in the Works in Progress Thread. As Excidium is now complete, I figured it was time to post him in the Show Off forum. The WIP thread covers things in a bit more detail, but from that thread: The project is going to be a diorama of a dragon from Naomi Novik's Temeraire series, where dragons basically get turned into airborne frigates in the Napoleonic age. The dragon will be Excidium, for those who've read the books. These are not quite the final pictures, I'll be taking "official" pictures for submission to the contest tomorrow once I have daylight to work with. Also, the brightest blue portions of the base may still darken some as the water material continues to cure. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ferox Posted August 30, 2010 Share Posted August 30, 2010 Oh my goodness. The conversion is outstanding, the attention to detail is commendable, and the paint is excellent, but the scope and ambition of the project is what takes it over the top. Well done!

Magc8Ball Posted August 30, 2010 Author Share Posted August 30, 2010 Final photos have been taken! Thanks everyone for their feedback... now I have to figure out where I can put it so that it won't fall over in the next earthquake. (This post basically duplicates the one in the WIP forum.) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
