Frost Worm from Bones 2 (based on 14595 Frost Worm)

[Dr Boom 2816]

This guy first crept out of the Bones box when I was looking for a giant centipede, however I looked at the textures and details on it and decided it shouldn't be anything but a Frost Worm / Remorrhaz. Because nothing that emerges from the Bones box can ever re-enter it, it's been sitting around in my to do list while other more urgent things have been completed.

 

I think the single word which best describes the colour scheme is lurid, particularly with the inclusion of the purple highlights. I probably spent less time on it than I should have, however I'm still recovering from painting all the legs on my Behir. I know the monster manuals / bestiaries describe the ends of the spikes as glowing a dull cherry red, however I think it more sense to have the heat coming from the body of the beast. Looking at the "lava" effects it probably needs a brighter highlight in the midst of the yellow regions and I might go back over it at a later date. Still it's there for the next time the party's wandering across the tundra. Now to give things with more legs than a standard cow a rest for the time being . . .

Love the lava coloring, and also the bluish frosty looking tail end.

Great!  Such a rainbow of color AND temperature.

Great job, that lava back is awesome!

The 'lurid' coloring really works here - providing the temperature contrast the beastie deserves.
