77190: Nethyrmaul the Undying

[odinsgrandson]

Well, here's the big Dracolich from Reaper.  His base is a CD- I sculpted some rocks to match the rocks that the mini was already standing on.

 

I'm really quite fond of this mini- dragons and zombies go together quite well,a nd his rotting flesh was a real joy to paint.  You might not be able to tell from the photos, but the red areas are glossy, making him seem more fresh.

 

Also, I posted him to CMON for anyone who cares to vote.

wow.. just wow..

Well done! He looks lovely...for an undead dragon.

I love that blue-purple transition!  It makes it look more magical.  That shiny red is a brilliant idea!

Simply gorgeous.

 

The colors are really striking.

I'll just be over here giving away all of my brushes and paints. Amazing job. Thanks for sharing.

You can't give up the week Reaper makes its first Chibis.  It's not allowed.

That is a WONDERFUL creation. Your way with colors is FANTASTIC. VERY WELL DONE!

I am constantly in awe of the immense talent encountered on this forum. Wow! So beautiful! Can we have a picture of the back as well?

I like it, but (and this is only my personal opinion) he seems too... pristine to me in regards to his scales. They are lovely and look too perfect/alive for an undead dragon. I like my undead to be grittier/dirtier/darker more about the undeath aspect. Not trying to take anything away from the job you did (which is fantastic), just giving my thoughts when I look upon him.

VERY COOL.  Love multitude of color choices and great transitions..  Really like your interpretation.

I dunno, it just gives it that freshly, newly dead, that party just tricked me into me my own demise, sort of look.

As I said, my personal preference/opinion. It's a wonderful paint job and we all have our own opinions on how we'd do things or what really inspires us.

Fantastic job on this one. Beyond the great colors and transitions, I really like how well the lining is.
