Stormcast Stardrake

[odinsgrandson 12048]

Here is the Stardrake- known to the base masses as a "dragon." He, of course, is from Games Workshop's Age of Sigmar line, where the setting is populated by Ogors, Aelfs, Oruks and Duardin, and definitely does not contain Tolkienesque races like Ogres, Elves, Orcs and Dwarves.

 

To be honest, I think it is the best "dragon" that I've seen from Games Workshop.  It was a pretty nice one to paint up.

 

Anyway, here are some pictures for you.

Oh, my! That's quite impressive.

[alchemist 5720]

Outstanding job on this.  Superb!

[BLZeebub 2535]

Great preamble!

 

Also, that thing is gorgeous!  Love the scales and the transitions from violet to blue, and especially the gold...and the sword...AND the wings...and the base is cool too.  Eesh, excellent work, friend!

 

Ed:  AND the eyes!

That's a gorgeous paint job on an awesome sculpt. You are right about this being a really nice GW dragon although the belly wings are interesting

[Glitterwolf 204672]

Great paintjob!

 

Love the star pattern on the wings.

 

As for the sculpt the positioning of the wings is a bit odd IMHO.

To be honest, I was not a fan of the AOS models in general when they first came out, but I've warmed up to a lot of the newer stuff.  Your painting on the model is really wonderful, though I'm not a fan of all the armor on the dragon.

IT HAS THE SHINY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It must be mine!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Phenomenal work on the paint job here. I agree that some things about the figure are odd, like the wings and front legs, but your work on it is spectacular.

[odinsgrandson 12048]

One odd thing about this mini is that the wings have two poses- there are four "shoulder" bits for them to connect with.  However, the change is so slight, that I couldn't tell which one I used after putting it together...

 

The head options were great, though.  The closed mouth head really does change the way it looks.

I'm not usually that big a fan of GW sculpts, but that is pretty darned impressive.

 

And another stunning paint job!!

[haldir 44002]

Wow!

 

First thing out of my mouth once the page loaded.

 

Fantastic work on everything but I love the colors on the head.

[Guildenstern 4590]

Lovely wings :D

 

too bad about the rider :P

 

Not a huge fan of those, but the Dragon is awesome =D
