77341, Lions

[Metalchaos]

Hi everyone, it's been some time. It's been hard for me to find some time to paint lately. I'm working on my Cat Critter display base as much as I can, a little every night. So, I thought some of you might like to see part of my progress. Here are part of the statues and "collapsed" pillars that will be decorating the display diorama.

 

The lions are Reaper Miniatures 77341, sculpted by Geoff Valley. The collapsed pillars are 72591, Wizkids. I cut them to separate the blocs and painted them in white marble colors. There are veins of quartz and gold in the marble. As you can see, I glued the lions tail on their back to make them look more like statues. The lions are mounted on 74012, 25 x 50mm cavalry base.

Really cool job - you really nailed the marble look.

First of all great work!

I love the marble effect.

 

Second.. Thank you so much for the idea!

I have on of those lions and I have parts of the lioness ( used the head tail and paws for a conversion once, still have the body.)

Now I know what to do with those!
