Kaladrax Fallen
« on: May 20, 2014, 06:50:20 PM »
Laying where she fell, long enough ago that the jungle begins to reclaim the site of her demise...





Figure converted from "Kaladrax" from Reaper Miniatures' Bones line.  She has been hollowed out and substantially reposed from the original.  Paints used:  Liquitex Burnt Umber and Acrylic Matte Varnish in about a 1:5 ratio over an unprimed surface.  The warriors discovering her mortal remains are on US pennies.

What a great idea!  :D
Fantastic paint job on it too. Something tells me there are going to be a lot of us making something similar for our own, especially considering how affordable the large Bones figures are.

Had it been Admiral Benbow's thread I wouldn't have been surprised if it actually WAS a hodge podge of real animal skeleton pieces. :D ;D

Nice one, Froggy! Did you prune the tail too? I seem to remember the tail being very long...

Very nice. I hope this is from the bones kickstarter for $10 otherwise it would have cost a bundle!
