@Roo: Many thanks!

@HappyChappy439: Cheers! I do try and take my research very seriously.


Heyhey, happy new year. Which in turn means new Dark Soulsy things. Big things too, this time!



First, the Last Giant (after a tough day apparently):









The Executioner's Chariot (plus friends):

Certainly a very memorable boss fight.


...and here's the Gaping Dragon!







Working with that one was good, good fun.  I mean making the base and simply removing mold lines from ALL the teeth and filling gaps took several hours. And then the painting had me doubt my approach once or twice. But in the end he turned out really well I think. I'm happy with that chap. He's a big'un too, on a 15cm base, and overlapping quite considerably to the sides and back, as you can see.

Well, I hope that you like the guys. C&C welcome as always!

Wow!

That's some impressive work.

[DalyDR]

That's tremendous work, but, man, that "dragon" is messed up.  The bit of spittle or whathaveyou dripping from its maw is a perfect detail.

[LoxIslay]

Amazing paint work as always

Alright, I'll say it: It looks like he's squatting to piss. 

Still an incredible paintjob of a horrifying miniature. Dark Souls indeed.

Truly amazing painting on some out there miniatures. Great job 

[HappyChappy439]

These are fantastic!

The blending on the Gaping Dragon's scales is absolutely top notch! Really well done!

@Elk101: Thanks very much!

@DalyDR: Cheers! It's a pretty impressive model, that. You can't quite see it in the pictures, but he also has a big old pot belly dragging along the floor and a atrophied little head over the big maw. It's an impressive thing and - as all the impressive DS things - has a gripping backstory I never really read.

Just in case it helps, this video explains the mechanics behind the thing a litte: [youtube]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kVk4vtLEEV8[/youtube]

@LoxIslay: Many thanks!

@FramFramson: Believe me, there were worse-looking iterations of that before the final colouring. I mean that whole design is ever so slightly subtext-laden to begin with anyway, so why not have some fun.

@Little Odo: Thanks very much!

@HappyChappy439: Cheers! Yes, painting that one was fun. At first I thought it's yet another grimdark black-grey monster with lots of teeth, so I was very happy to see the slight sheen on the creature when I watched the video. But when I saw that this is basically a shiny, rainbow-coloured dragon it was fun times ahead.


Today I delivered the figures to their owner and he gave me the last batch of Dark Souls bosses. After that I'll do some more smaller Dark Souls figures.
