'For Joshua' - Red Dragon and Knights at O'Grady's Gulch


O'Grady's Gulch asks us to paint a figure for a friend and so I thought this was a suitable spot for me to offer my submission to James' poignant and very worthy 'For Joshua' project.

I excavated through my Lead Shed to see if I had something suitable, and was delighted to come across this old chestnut. Here we have a very OOP Imperial Dragon from GW's venerable, but excellent 10mm Warmaster range.


A nice lump of metal and suitably imposing on the battlefield. 


Also included is a unit of Bretonnian knights, ready to charge and get gloriously char broiled in their plate armour. 'Off you go, good lads. I hope you put on your SPF 1 Billion...'

As GW also made a 10mm  'Battle of the Five Armie's boxed set years ago, I think, in a pinch, he'd also make a spiffing (smoking? smoldering?) Smaug.


I hope you like them James.

Curt

    Outstanding work here Mr. Curt! It reminds me that I have an unused BoFA box on the shelf... one of those "someday" projects I guess!

      I have one two that needs attention. Still need to find that straffing Smaug though - love that mini.
