Pete’s Dragon

A good friend of mine from work recently kindly gave me a Tom Meier Red Dragon that he’d bought in the 1980’s. This weekend I painted it and hope I did it justice. I went for a green colour scheme as I have a GW WOTR dragon which I intend to paint red at a later date. Here’s the finished beast…

As way of progression on how I painted it some more photos follow. First the box…

There was a good bit of cleanup to do, 80s moulds! Also filled gaps with green stuff and bend the tail round.

Then base coated with a dark grey and green mix

Now all green using various shades and dry brushing techniques

I put it on a GW oval base. I will use it as a Drake (dragon) for War of the Ring.

I added some GW skulls and sand to the base for interest.

I painted the base brown then dry brushed a little for the finished effect. Here it is again from the reverse angle.
Thanks for the model Pete and I hope you like it.
