Hi Terry,
The essence of Dragonmasters (relative to the wargaming possibilities) pits warlords against each other using a combination of human and "dragon" (called basics, intelligent to semi intelligent reptilothings) armies (several hundred warriors total). The issue is that there are several different types of dragons ranging in size and shape) I will keep your offer in mind should I go for forward with the project - thank you.

Incidently I have experimented with Pendraken space aliens (reptiles) and there are some possibilities.
Here is one rendition of a few of the dragon types:



As to OZ -Denslow is the artist on the first book (therefore) the most famous, Neill did the rest.

Hello d_guy

For dragons I find the Safari Lucky Minis to be handy for 10mm fantasy

They're all about an inch/25mm high. The material is a bit soft but workable.

Grumpy,

Thank you!

Here's an example that may help. I wanted to do the good army of Glinda of Oz, so I based it upon both the book and the 1939 movie to create it. You can see how I went about it here. And just FYI, in the book Dorothy is only about 4 or 5 years old.

Oh, wow! Those are both brilliant and beautiful. Excellent set of posts and finished work

I remember that illustration from Best of White Dwarf Scenarions (Volume 1)   

If you want to stick with Official Pendraken Goodness^TM, you'll need these 'Things' 




Cheers!

Clearly the task becomes more feasible! Thanks Meirion.

You're welcome.  They're not in the catalogue, but if you ask Leon he'll be able to sort you some out  

Just had a moment of inspiration and managed to find the thread where I first heard about them! http://www.pendrakenforum.co.uk/index.php/topic,1551.0.html

There's a picture of them being used to haul a cart which will give you an idea of scale:


If you're not familiar with the Pendraken fantasy stuff, be aware that it is sculpted closer to 12mm than true 10mm, so those Amazons/Barbarians are hefty lasses and lads!  

The head is modelled onto the torso or the older lizardmen mounts (not the newer, raptor-riding ones)

The Packard walker and the rest of the army are primed and undercoats painted on. Tomorrow I hope to start the actual base coats. Not really much to see right now so no pictures, but just wanted to give an update.

Terry

Looking forward to seeing some shots, Terry. 

Cheers - Phil

Yep, looking forward to pics of it painted.

Terry, despite the unintended "thread-hack", I too look forward to seeing the results of your painting. 

d Guy, Not to worry, as I found it interesting and am always looking for good subjects for HotT armies.

Re the walker, I have finished the first cut today at the base coats of the camo, and share this picture with you.



Keep in mind this is just a first blush effort and I am sure it will change some before it's finished. Once I finalize the camo color areas I'll work on the black outline, which will be a challenge in several places. However, it won't really take shape until the wash is applied and the highlights and details painted in. But at least for now you can get an idea of what it will be looking like.

More to follow,

Terry

That looks great Terry and really breaks up the shape of the walker unit. Looking forward to the black lining and details etc.

That looks surprisingly effective camo!

Now, pop the roundels on so I've got something to aim for, please

really interested to see how this turns out
