Great Spined Dragon - Diorama

This is such an amazing diorama, painting and sheer imagination is wonderful. Really inspiring work! The hatching dragon is a great touch.

The first hero gets his spot!
In homage to a certain childhood movie...

This is such an awesome project! In my eyes the first hero doesn't quite fit the scene. I don't know if it is the blue, but I think he is far too clean and un-harmed. Maybe some sweat, dirt and damage to him and his gear?

But loving this whole thing, can't wait it to be finished.

He is moving cautiously towards the lair - he hasn't seen the full horror of what is in store for him. He will soon be battered and singed but not yet ... not yet ...

I feel that its comming along as I planned it in my head... its still a lot more to be done with the base (so to speak)
More mushrooms and a bit of touchup on the existing ones.
Some giant rats are waiting to get placed, a snake and bat as well... more mushrooms, some foilage, dead trees and whatnot. Grass and eventualy some flowers!

Until next time!

Have a nice day!
 
Really well done! I love the stars on the other dudes' cloak :)

Is the ground going to remain muddy or are you going to be adding other stuff to it?

Can't wait to see it completed :grin:

The mark of a great diorama is that it tells a story. You are definitely telling a great story here.
