Re: Dinosaur Bashes ... Running Thread ... The BASHING Continues!!!

Looking good Vlad.
I can give you info on the guy who made me custom 3d printed spikes . I am sure he would work with you to create spikes to your specifications .

Re: Kitbash: Nazgul Dragon; rework 2024-04-15

Continuing to add spikes …I hate to think of how many more hours it is going to take to complete all 3 rows.. I won’t bore you guys with any more intermediate spike installs after this post. I will post more pics when I finish adding all of them. I am going out of town for rest of the week so it wil...

Thanks Ian, the tail on the original statue was crazy long and wispy.

Continuing to add spikes…slow but steady progress. Just roughing these in now. I will have to do lots of refining and detailing after the three rows of spikes are all roughed in. https://i.postimg.cc/QK32Ft0X/IMG-4698.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/3kczg9nf/IMG-4699.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/NL8hW6jL/IMG-4...

Re: Kitbash: Nazgul Dragon; rework 2024-04-14

Thanks for the very honest feedback guys ! I truly appreciate that you guys tell me when you think something I am doing does not look good. However, in this case, I really like the balrog (rams head) look as it is very unique and different from the stereotypical dragon head horns. So as much as I si...

Thanks Vlad! I think these new horns look pretty wicked cool , even if I do say so myself. Working on adding the new 3d printed back spikes.Very slow and tedious process , but worth it. I like these new spikes much better than the previous back neck spikes that I had sculpted from scratch. SPIKES BE...

Thanks Trevor, Vlad, and Ian! I sincerely appreciate the feedback that you guys give me on my bashes. Trying something else for the first time - using diorama terrain grass to add some realistic (hopefully) moss effects to the base. https://i.postimg.cc/HjVZgDTV/IMG-4691.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/zHb...

Re: How are your 2024 model contest entries coming along?

I am way behind schedule where I wanted to be by now
I will lucky to have 5 done versus the 8 I had hoped for ….

Changing the head horns to use horns from a 3d printed Balrog head Definitely an improvement over the previous horns BEFORE HORNS https://i.postimg.cc/gL81K9jz/IMG-1827.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/34PPprKf/IMG-1828.jpg NEW HORNS https://i.postimg.cc/64JmqH0D/IMG-4680.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/7fNWPnTW/I...

Re: Kitbash: Minotaurs, new pics 2024-04-10

Thanks Trevor and Vlad. The splash was fairly easy. Spread out some woodland scenics wave gel in a non stick pan in a circular design. Making it thicker towards the center and thinner towards the outer edges. Use a thin stir stick to make ripples throughout and rough up the outer edges. Wait a day o...
