I want one. :(
Nice painting as always dude. Keep up the work!~ Can't wait to see it done.
If you do want a different color on the model, I also think a dark blue egg with lighter blue spots might also work. Happy painting!

Hey guys, just a quick update of my dragon. I haven't done a lot more due to having recently being introduced to Magic the Gathering! Hope my fellow Dragon painters are fairing well. Look forward to seeing how much more you've done.

Thanks for everyone's comments so far. Sorry no updates for a little while, been playing Magic a lot of late. Tomorrow however I aim to get a lot more done. I hope to get the majority of the body done so I should be able to show you more pictures tomorrow night.

Drauglin, a high honour you bestow me, quite humbling as there are many better painters then little ol' me! But I hope you'll post your photos on this thread. I'm getting a little Carmine Dragon group together! Who'll finish first? (not me I'm a slow painter!) To get larger photo's, have you tried hovering the mouse pointer/curser over the image and pressing SHIFT + R on your keyboard?

Hope everyone else's dragons are going well, looking forward to seeing more!

All the best!

Carmine Dragon Update

Hi people, I said yesterday that I was going to show you a little more progress on my Dragon. So I did a few hours work on him today. Sorry it's not much, next time I put a picture up I'll hopefully have the whole body and egg done, leaving the wings until the end.

How are other people's Dragons coming along?

Looks great DPP! Love the contrast between the red scales and the bone colored horns. Looks fantastic!

Carmine Dragon is done!

As the title implies, I have finally finished my dragon. Sorry it's taken a while longer then I'd have liked, just I've been busy planning something big of late (all shall hopefully become apparent in the coming weeks).

Look forward to your views and critique, and also hope to see how other peoples dragons are coming along.
 
The scales are pretty awesome and the underbody does offer a nice contrast but the spines and claws seem too white at the tips. Plus there does not seem to be any difference in how shiney the model it. I would figure the scales and claws would have a different shine to it.

Hey Djinn, cheers for the feedback. I may go back over the white with a watered down devlan wash. As for the shinyness of the claws, after I've given the model a spray of purity seal, then I'll go over the claws and spines with a matt varnish.
