03884 Komodo Dragon by Glitterwolf

[Glitterwolf]

This is a great realistic sculpt of a Komodo Dragon, sculpted by our own @TaleSpinner.

I included it in my Lost World Project WIP here:

I used UV Resin Gel from Greenstuffworld to create the water ( my first try for deeper and clear water), made the base with Vallejo Desert Sand Paste, Cork and some milliput.

Added some fish and seacucumbers/seaweed from Procreate and Milliput, one fish is from Mastercrafted Miniatures and the other two were made with the UV Gel and a Tinyworld Mold.

 

The Komodo Dragon is an awesome sculpt, it paints itself!

I looked at reference pics of the real thing.

 

Enjoy.

Thank you!

I can't emphasize enough what a great sculpt this is!

It's a joy to paint and I felt it deserved a nice base!

The Monitor Lizard/Komodo Dragon painted up SPLENDIDLY. The base did , however, steal the show. VERY WELL DONE!

Thanks Al!

It is your basing that inspired me to pay more attention to bases.

Especially for the monsters and characters I like to do something extra.

[Darcstaar]

Great job!  My only criticism would be that I think you tried to pack too much sea life into the resin.

[Rigel]

Fantastic job! Love that tide-pool base. Amazing how many different skills you learn for this hobby, isn't it? 

[Othikent]

Great work! You did a great sculpt justice.

[Corsair]

WOW! That turned out fantastic!

[KruleBear]

Awesome. And you knocked the resin pour out of the park.

That is so cool, and I really like the blues that you put into your komodo dragon!

Aww, thanks.  You did a great job.  The resin pour turned out really really good.  I really need to try that someday.  Thanks for bringing my baby to life!
