Cinder: Return to Fantasy

[knarthex]

SO....

 

Due to Brain Weasels and other Real Life Issues, I haven't been doing much, really almost no, fantasy painting...

One of the things I have been doing is looking at old WIPs, and suddenly the desire to paint a DRAGON, came over me....

 

So here is the start of my new work on Cinder, #10014, in METAL...

 

Hopefully, I can keep up the sudden burst of enthusiasm....

 

So planning on mold line hunting, and trying to decide what color to paint this dragon...

As I am old school, the webbing between the back spines is leading me to green, but need to check the books to see which way to go....

 

About time you returned from the place I couldn't reach you minion......

 

OMG, please not again....

any and all comments gratefully ignored....

An oldie but a goodie, as we used to say.  Nice to see some love for metal.

If it ain't METAL....

IT'S CRAP!

 

to quote Dee Snider....

 

I wonder if they plan on doing dragons in Bones Black or Bones USA....

I think he’d look good red, black or green.

[Sharkbelly]

Agreed.

Go green!  It's so rare to see people paint emerald dragons.  Make it awesome!

So, some work was done...

After searching for, and eradicating where found, any mold lines, some basic assembly was done.

The Tail and right leg were attached, and a first go at gap filling was done...

the head was attached with green stuff, and the putty pushed into place as well...

Holes were drilled in the base and legs for paper clip pins, after marking the lines for the proper angles.

The wings, which are molded flat, were bent over a fire extinguisher to make them look more natural. This is the same thing I did with Takhisis a while ago..

those are 2 of the bases I used for Takhisis and Nathavaar for those that remember those wips...

So now I am in a bit of a quandary...

do I attach the arms and putty, or do them separately and putty later...

anyone that has done this figure have an opinion?

All comments looked at!

just a thought...

Cinder is too RED dragon....

If anyone says "Mulch" they will know unendurable torment....

Almost started him instead, but cinder is a bit smaller....

Vyrminemus Venemun

 

 

Spoiler

That is ersatz, faux, Latin for Poison Woodland-Wyrm. Sorta like Vermithrax Pejorative, but different.
