Title: Evil White African Elephant - WIP
Post by: darquebus on 30 September 2012, 09:57:46 AM
I thought it would be nice to have an evil white (white!, I know there are actually no "white" elephants, so maybe this should be in the Pulp section..anyhow) elephant as a mount for an evil shaman. So when I saw this nice Schleich-Elefant, I had to repaint it and put some stuff onto it...

The leopard skin is especially well done.

Great work.

The poor albino elephant looks so sad. :'(

That's a very cool idea that has been well executed.

It looks great!

 :D Thanks guys...it is actually not a big job, just a repainted Schleich model (and even not my idea!)
I was inspired by this one (see below) but this model is VERY big, probably 30cm long or so. But I thought it was a nice idea

Some time ago I did this one

I had this Reaper king model, but thought it was bad that you could not use this nice model in a game because it "can't" move around. So I thought I mount it on an Elephant...(no i do not have Elephant-itis  ;)

Managed to resist - just.
