Kitbash: Ymirs

#1 Post by barad_dur »

Kitbash of Tony McVey Ymir.
I added wings from dragonheart Draco model kit , which I significantly modified.

Base is a bash of significantly modified Mcvey Ymir base (top platform) and Steve West alien landscape (bottom) which I moved and added craters and lava flow using woodlands scenics water.
I sculpted the columns.

Bottom Ymir is unmodified.

Many work in progress pics of this bash can be found in Kustomizers section of the clubhouse.

There are no strangers at WF.
Just friends we haven't met yet.

Hah, no, I do not have a Facebook page.
I believe Tim may have seen my wife’s Facebook page as she posted pics of Wonderfest there?

Tim, I hope to meet you in person at next Wonderfest!

That's it. She was talking about the awesome dragon someone was rightfully raving about. I hope to meet more people at the next WF as well.
