not quite sold on the tail yet, but considering how the rest turned out so far, i'm sure it will be great.

@ Lord_Azoth: Thanks!
@ Church: Thanks

!
@ vladdrak: Thanks but it still takes.
@ Assassination Nation: Thanks! All posts are a great motivation for me

.
@ DiederikIII: Thanks!
@ Enkiel: The tail is only in a basic form

.

I am currently a bit under stress because of the university, but I try to bring additional update regularly.

Assassination nation · Sat Jun 12, 2010 11:34 pm

The fins/ears look great. Fills in that void nicely and matches the under chin fin really well.
I know the feeling of being overwhelmed by school.
Sucks when your future gets in the way of current gaming hapiness haha.
Great work again.

Diederikiii · Post by **Diederikiii** » Sun Jun 13, 2010 10:03 am

yeah school especialy around this time of the year

As Assasination Nation said the fins realy matches the under chin.

Now I'm off studying

@ Assassination Nation: Thanks

!
@ DiederikIII: Thanks!

The next dragon update:

And here my Tullaris:

Diederikiii · Post by **Diederikiii** » Sat Jun 19, 2010 1:24 pm

oke I just love this pose.
Is that a spike/horn on the elbow ? Cause I think it would look great.

Only remark is about gameplay:

I think the tail is on a some what bad position. I mean you can't put a unit next to your dragon (like when you charge with your dragon and an other unit).

Or if your dragon get's flanked (What will never acure).

BTW you thread is so inspiring that, when school is out and graspop is over I'm gonna start sculpting some kind of deamon - chaos ogre model.

So how is school progressing ? I only have one week left (for this year).

Malekith85 · Post by **Malekith85** » Sat Jun 19, 2010 2:03 pm

@ DiederikIII: Yes, there are horns on the elbow.
You are right because of the gameplay, but I think he looks so more dynamic.
In 2.5 weeks are the first exams in the university.

Malekith85 · Post by **Malekith85** » Sat Jun 19, 2010 5:31 pm

Here is my Kouran:

Assassination nation · Sat Jun 19, 2010 9:26 pm

I must say that while the dragons tail might obscure some gameplay, the end looks wicked and the position really is more dynamic.
I have to say i love your special char conversions. Tolaris is menacing. Kouran is my favorite though. The extra bits you added on really make him look incredible.
Great work and good luck with schooling. My next finals are still 2 months away so i can still kind of breath.
Take care.

Diederikiii · Post by **Diederikiii** » Sun Jun 20, 2010 8:01 am

Wow nice charachters, yup Kouran is so nice.
Tullaris isn't bad, but there is some thing wrong with the freehand on his back.
To me the purple looks to creamy and not even.

looks like I'm getting off prety good with my finals, you guys still need to start.
But I'll be studying in august (the finals I didn't pass on

)

keep up the great work

@ Assassination Nation: Thanks!
@ DiederikIII: I will remake something on Tullaris.

What are you studying?

Inspired by Sinzaren spearmen unit I've also just tried my one. There are only five but I also repaint something.

Diederikiii · Post by **Diederikiii** » Mon Jun 21, 2010 10:20 pm

I like the spearmen just cause longer spears always reminds me of ancient greek warriors :p

I'm in my first year of industral engineering, but it will depend on my grades the end of this school year what it will be next year.
Maybe (if my grades aren't that good) I'm gonna study to teacher in one or two of the following; physics, mechanics, electricity, electronics, history, theology.

What are you studying?

Malekith85 · Post by **Malekith85** » Wed Jun 23, 2010 4:31 pm

The greek warriors were also an example

,
Nice, I hope your fit notes. Otherwise I would advise you to mathematics and physics.
I study physics and I like it very well. Before that, I started with mathematics, but for that I was not good enough.

Here my next dragon update

. I have mainly worked on the left front leg and I will rebuild the tail.

Lord_azoth · Post by **Lord_azoth** » Wed Jun 23, 2010 6:35 pm

each update is better than the porevious one..keep on mate!

D.e. warrior · Post by **D.e. warrior** » Fri Jun 25, 2010 8:26 am

THe work on your malekith was amazing! But for the dragon I have no words! I kind of conciddered you crazy when I saw you chopped off the so nicely sculpted first legs, but like Azoth already said, each update is getting better and better!
Not quite sure about the tail dough. To me it looks a little to thick, but the thing is amazing!

Love the head of the dragon and the way it is posed looks really awesome! Looking forward to see it finished and painted

Malekith85 · Post by **Malekith85** » Sat Jun 26, 2010 3:36 pm

@ Lord_Azoth: Thanks

!
@ D.E. warrior: Thanks, I remake the tail.

I have the spear time again reduced by 1 cm and I've converted the standard bearer.

The dragon will get a new tail but its very WIP.

And here I start with the claws.

Syn'dar · Post by **Syn'dar** » Sat Jun 26, 2010 4:17 pm

This is Sparta anyone ?!

That's a HUGE block of spears ! Looks really nice, we'll probably see a lot of those in the green skins/skaven armies in the next edition... Cant' wait to align my 60 spearmen

Don't hesitate to oversized the muscles of the dragon, the wip looks promising !

Malekith85 · Post by **Malekith85** » Sun Jul 04, 2010 9:15 am

@ Syn'Dar: Thanks! I'm looking forward also to large infantry blocks

.

Here is an attempt to change my color scheme is something. My intension is to create a dark and cool look. I'm sorry but the pictures are not the best.

And here is an update from the dragon tail:

Lord tsunami · Post by **Lord tsunami** » Sun Jul 04, 2010 12:19 pm

LOVE the new tail

Post by **cultofkhaine** » Sun Jul 04, 2010 1:17 pm

Yes the new tail looks a lot better. Not totaly sold though on the jaw of the beast - looks to angular - could do with removal of some of that green stuff.

Diederikiii · Post by **Diederikiii** » Sun Jul 04, 2010 7:06 pm

I like the change on the tail.
Not sure about the shoulders, I liked it more without it. But it fits with the concept you had about how the dragon would look.

And Malekith85, I'm gonna see after my re-examinations what I'm gonna do probaly teacher in physics (I always liked that class)

Kurl-soulrender · Post by **Kurl-soulrender** » Sun Jul 04, 2010 7:51 pm

The Jaw of the beast reminds me of Metal Gear Rex from Metal Gear solid one and four.. Not sure its a good thing tho... Maybe if you made it amoured or something. Hmm. But just mho.
The wings almost looks too small, haha.

Im looking forward to see the beast finished, maybe when painted it will blow me away, not sure, but good work anyways, something i never will be able to do with greenstuff..

And btw, spikes down the spine, that would do great on it i think.

Assassination nation · Mon Jul 05, 2010 5:16 am

Yeah new tail looks much better in length and width, although have to say the end could probably be thickened up just a slight bit.
Either way, still great work and was happy for the new up date.
About the change in color scheme, the one with the edges of the shield is the new one right? I was trying to figure it out from the prior photos but wasnt sure. Either way they both look great. Your army has a lot of cool conversions and nice paint jobs. Makes me wish i had more time to make such a nice army.
Cheers

Destruction2 · Post by **Destruction2** » Mon Jul 05, 2010 10:49 am

That dragon is looking amazing, although i think it was better without the bronze stuff on the shoulders its still best converted dragon ive ever seen. But could i ask how did you convert the malekith on foot? he just looks so amazing.
