Gaint stompy undead monster thingy - WIP






So I wanted a big centrepiece for undead army. Back in my youth Grenadier miniatures used to make several undead war beasts which are sadly OOP from what I can tell but would make a great centre piece to any army. A few pop up on eBay but get rather pricey therefore I decided to make my own version.
I picked up this dinosaur skeleton of eBay for a couple of quid. I then added a howdah made from match sticks, lolly pop sticks and florist wire. I added some banners and some cloth barding from kitchen towel and pva glue. Finally added some shields from my bits box.
The bottom picture shows the model with it's base coat and magic wash. Next step is highlighting. I'm looking to eBay to furnish 3-4 skeleton crewmen as well.
Cheers Jon

  1. Nice.

    I think you should keep the name too, in the interests of phsychological warfare.
