Here's an experiment in speed painting - a shadow dragon from Descent. There are two in the box, so I have another to take my time with, but I wanted to try just using washes to get a quick, table-top-standard beastie. Like many board-game pieces, this one's covered with endless mouldlines, flash and visible joints. I tried to fill in the odd bit with liquid green stuff, but really couldn't be bothered doing any more. All I was really after was something that will look OK on the OGAM or DR table.

Love the colours you've used. It looks great. I can't place the mini though but I'm sure I've seen it before, or something like it.

Cheers! It's from the Song of Hammer and Forge kickstarter - the same as the boggart/weremole from a few pages back.

The Dragon, Orcs, & the Lizard Guy are all WONDERFUL creations done in your own style. OUTSTANDING WORK as always!

Thanks, DeafNala!

Here's an Orc juggernaut. It reminds me of the Olab from Moorcock's Sailor on the Seas of Fate.

And one more shot of the juggernaut. He's earmarked for legend duty in OGAM.

Great job on the juggernaut, I always thought it was bigger though, or is there a different similar version used as a mount?
Edit, yep, just found a bigger one. http://www.mirliton.it/product_info.php?pName=orcs-giant-juggernaut-with-sorcerer-rider&cName=fantasy-2528mm-orcs
 I think your size looks much better though.

Thanks! Yes, when I bought this one on eBay, I expected him to be bigger. I agree that he's a better figure than the bigger version, though.

Here's an old fimir. He might end up as Balor in an OGAM game, or just as a fomorian. I agonised over whether to give his eye a pupil, but in the end my hand was forced by a groove in the metal. I think it's an improvement, in the end.

And with some fomorian kin.

The Juggernaut & Fomorian turned out WONDERFULLY. I've never had occasion to paint any of the One Eyed Guys, but your FINE WORK makes them tempting. VERY WELL DONE once more!
