The Ugly Thing

This miniature has been sitting in my bits box for a while.  It was given to me by a mate ages ago.  Made by Ral Partha as a 'Demon Beast', it has sat there awaiting a likely fate of getting melted down to make something else.  However, fortune shone on the 'Ugly Thing', and I decided to give him a lick of paint.  I like the hero he has under his arm and the one on the end of his axe!  What an ugly brute!

Khisanth- the black dragon

Here is a bit of a diversion from my usual painting themes.  Khisanth is a dragon from the Dragonlance series of books and games. It is made by Ral Partha and in my opinion come from a time when some of that companies finest figures are made.  They are detailed and animated and are great fun to paint. I really like the way this dragon has a 'serpent like' appearance.  Apologies for the photo- it is hard to photograph the black accurately.
