Flying Green Dragon

August 24, 2023 · in Figures · · 16 · 469

This project started with my Mom seeing the Red I did a while back. She liked it and mentioned that she'd like to have something similar but not so spikey. 🙂

So, being the good son, I purchased this model from 'Lord of the Print' on myMiniFactory.com It's not necessarily intended to be Green, but that's what Mom wanted.

There are 3 different medallions embedded in the dragon's skin... they have, what appear to be, Asian symbols so I went with that as the deep pink sash and white cloth/pale skin would stand out well against the green of the dragon. It's also why I chose the reddish brown for the leather straps; contrast.

  1. What a good son you are, Brian, I love the texture on this which your painting has really brought out.

  2. Nice paintwork, leading to a great result.

  3. Knowing how to contrast certain colors together, I'm sure, plays a major role in figure painting. Yours is a fine example.

  4. Amazing result, Brian! Great build thread too!

  5. Glad you did listen to your mom, Brian @brithebuilder
