Helldrake

Let's keep things going with another update. Two a week is a hard pace to set and it definitely won't last, but let's enjoy it while we can.

One model I've had the pleasure of painting in the last few months was a friend's Helldrake. Those things are huge! I didn't realize it while I was painting as I did it in parts and assembled at the end, but it's actually one of the largest models I've painted and certainly the biggest on this blog. Anyway it was a lot of fun to do, particularly as I was trying to be more adventurous with my airbrush which I used to paint the metal. I also had a go at giving him an OSL effect for the working fuel lines, and while it's not perfect it looks pretty good on the table.


It's hard to photograph big models -
I didn't notice part of the background wasn't covered by my cloth! 

Close up of the head.

Power lines and core seen from below - pretty happy!



Close up of the base and the crude chaos icon daubed in blood over the Imperial Aquila.

Anyway, I hope you like it. Until next time, happy painting!
