Stunning piece of work, the thought you've put into it is matched by your skill with a paintbrush. Can't wait to see the next instalment (and will be borrowing your ideas when I get around to my own great spined dragon). Thanks for sharing!

Oh, this is going to be nice. I can already see the vast sea of treasure and the corpses half buried in it. (And everywhere else, for that matter.) That'll be one of the finest (mis)uses of fantasy skeletons I can even imagine. (And as Mr. Solo said "I can imagine a lot.") Looking forward to it.

Oh dear...
More than a year since I started on this badboy...

Well, no more exuses to get it finished...
Stage:Armature.Done

A solid brass rod will hold the rock structure together with some help from the wood pillars... an egg nest of shields, pikes, lances and other pointy weapons at the verry top!




Thanks for looking and dont forget to fuel my fire...
I promise that I'll be more frequent with the updates...
 
Man, even at this stage, with all that you've collected & how awesome you've painted up the dragon himself, this is going to be one outstanding piece! I can almost taste the 80's vibe your heading towards :)

Ok now you are serious about this!
Smells like a master piece cooking up around here!

Only one detail, remember not to wear white socks the next time you take pictures :lol:

This looks like it's going to be incredible! I can't wait to see what it looks like when you start assembling the diorama a bit more...

Oh... I found my early scetches of the diorama...
It started small by only using the dragon

Then the idea of the nest with eggs came to life, multiplying the scale by about 10 times....

Now... I´ve added quite a few other things... this is gonna take a while to complete :)
