Just re-read my thread: so many projects, so few completed!  :-\  :'(

Anyway, back to Tusk: fire bases and pits.  Did these a few months ago, but forgot to photograph them!  :-[



If anyone produces MDF flames I'd like to get some, but in the meantme here's some Litko ones I got at Colours last year:

Gave some of the Tusk beasties a go-over with Rustic Oak woodstain. Worked okay(-ish)  :-\

Apologies for the dark and crappy photo, have to try for a better one soon...

The terrifying Terraguayan Saddle-backed Nanotyrannus - test pieces for the raptor colour scheme. 

They're not consciously based on any particular real-world reptile, but influenced by several months poring through herpetology books at work and a desire to avoid a biologists "nothing that big would really be THAT colourful" mindset!  :-B

There may be a chameleon out there somewhere that comes vaguely close ;)

Nanotyrannus skirmishers.  These guys seem to have dazzle camoflage - or magic protection!  I can't seem to get an in-focus photo of them!  #-o

Great work, Meirion.
Will your camera let you 'spot focus' ?
If it will, I'd try 'aiming' at  the heads/bodies of the riders.
Otherwise move a little further away, and use the highest resolution you can...and just crop the shot.
Might work ?
Cheers - Phil.

Thanks.

Umm, to be honest Phil I ought to get my camera out, all my photos are taken with my phone!  #-o :-[

Saves time uploading them to photobucket: if I took them with a real camera then I'd never post any photos...  :!!

Ta, that they be!

The riderless raptors are great for twisting into animated poses  8)

..the crossbowmen less so  :-S

One got ripped in half at the waist - dangerous beasties these Nanotyrannus  :D
