Love Ral Partha sculpts, and the way the paint job lools like a fairy dragon or a pseudodragon

[@leversofpower]

Ender Panda I’ve got a few myself. Like many fantastic figures from that time period they are just more creative than now a days. However many of the independent artists on patron are making some very creative resin sculpts.

[@greggm1]

This is probably my favorite of all of the dragons you've painted. I love this scheme on this specific model so much... well done, sir.

[@jheu781]

I remember this Model in my LGS when I was a child, I always wanted to own one. Thanks for painting this and taking me back to my early teenage years.

[@mr.e1944]

That color scheme worked really well with that dragon model. You captured a fantastical fantasy look. Good job doctor!

[@scopedog755]

In my opinion one of the nicest dragon sculpts of all time, great video!

[@thalliwell100]

Absolutely beautiful, you managed to tie together many colors into a cohesive look. The wing technique is simple but really effective!

[@sebastiang.5032]

Your music has changed 😱 great mini, as always

[@dmmomma]

CRAZY BEAUTIFUL. I was going to say Absolutely Beautiful until I noticed the guy before me said the same thing... LOL

[@Brat0n]

Great video. Just was gifted this model today and randomly saw this in my suggested feed - serendipity!

[@charlesross7952]

Love this! This is 100% a dragon your party will run into in the Feywild, maybe a member of the Court of Spring?

[@luka4894]

your attention to details is incredible! it came out amazing and gives me a big feywild vibe in all the right ways

[@williamporter7596]

An amazing colour scheme and final result. Very inspirational.

[@Friedlandbe]

Probably the best rendition of this dragon I've ever seen !

[@rondyson8323]

Well done Doc ........This is a fantastic coulour sceme . the only change I would make would have been the horns which I would have left as a bone colour ,...it leaves that thought of dragons being possible in the mind of a viewer. But it doesn't matter what i think lol .....It's your dragon ,...and it's important to have it the way you want ,....after all your the one that's going to see it the most lol . Love your work Doc . Cheers

[@tubthumperloc3662]

Another beautiful piece!

[@AzraelThanatos]

You know, other than the shapes of the wings, you've now got a pretty good fairy dragon look...

[@xreev0x]

It looks so amazing! You should rename it “Spectrum Dragon”.

[@hamboigahs1589]

beautiful painting on a beautiful model

[@TheGreySpectrum]

Oh, man, if this is the same dragon you've shown off in your backlog videos, I've been wondering when you'd get to it for a while now. It's really great to get to see you working on it after all that time.

[@ingvar3369]

One word: wonderful ✨😍

[@maxbrandt6]

Very cool! Quite the blast from the past and it can still be purchased over at *Iron Wind Metals* website!! 😃

[@adamgardner2244]

Amazing as always

[@Quarterbash]

Really beautiful job here.

[@shaneflickinger]

Always nice to see these old school Partha sculpts get some love! Thanks Doc!

[@leifedmondson2813]

Awesome work Doc. I really admire your blends esp. the horn. Beautiful. Ironwind Metals/Ral Partha part number 10-461

[@marklinton4567]

Looks fantastic. What do you do with all the random miniatures you paint? Do you have a big display cabinet somewhere? Would love to see that someday.

[@n3r0n3]

I have this one since the 90s, small but pretty dragon! I actually did not know what brand it was

[@theGermanPrintingNerd]

Absolute Amazing oh and I love Dragon Models too

[@njabruzzo]

Love this - such an interesting palette - makes the dragon come alive

[@drakemallard4459]

BEAUTIFUL!

[@sumotode]

I think this might be my favorite model you have painted. Very cool, well done.

[@kikkauazza]

Looks awesome !

[@pez5767]

Great video, Doc. I really enjoyed this one. My favorite videos are the ones like this where you paint a D&D style model and you talk through the process you went through to develop the finished model. For example, the variety of colors in this project.

[@danielveiga1337]

This end up awesome! That's one o my favorites

[@ssgtslick]

MOST Excellent!

[@Kojak0]

Cool - and nice to see something that bright for once - I'm not brave enough to go that high in the color spectrum. That said, one thing I think is quite fun is if I have the opportunity, I divide colors in primaries (including white and black) and secondaries, and then see what I can get away with - a red wizard (primary) with a magical effect in a secondary color not related to the primary, like green or grey? Yes please. I also used this kind of mindfuck when I painted a chaos army for someone, but reversed - the troops main color was grey, but the secondary was red. It gave a pretty bizarre but still uniform look to those little cutie pies.

[@MaskedRiderChris]

I really enjoy the sculpt on this thing and your paint job is magnificent! I'm adding one or two of these to my eBay list, now, for sure.

[@Goblins_and_Aliens]

I really like the colour scheme concept. I will definitely put it one off my next projects. Keep up the good work 👍🏻

[@JohnProblem]

Came together in an amazing way!

[@redgreen09]

looking good thare like em post will see more

[@Spookytherin]

Wow, this looks fantastic

[@grahamgreening5280]

Love the look of this one! I love the look of all your work, too, but you know, this one is real good :) If you need inspiration for something to do on a future figure, could try doing a medieval fantasy figure in a comic book or Borderlands style. I've been trying it with a few figures (still WIP's), and would love to see what you would do with something like that. Cheers!

[@nickrogers3111]

looks great, I just finished a young silver dragon I've had for years. I had painted on it like 3 times trying to figure it out. I finished it a day ago with a 50/50 purple and silver mix, then dry brushed the wings and edge highlighted the body with a electric blue.

[@Stormeris]

absolutely gorgeous work.

[@ThePereubu1710]

Can I ask why you don't use a wet palate? It seems to be the "weapon of choice" for most figure painters now.

[@ThePaintingClinic]

Because it's how I learned to paint. Also a wet palette will keep your paint moist, but it's hard to control the dilution of the paint.

[@teragrammi]

I'm a recent subscriber very much enjoying your work. Whilst you've probably answered this before, may I ask what do you do with all these models. New fan from down under. Keep safe.

[@bladieeightwheels]

Yeah dude

[@bartekkucharski3880]

HI. I've painted one of Massive Darkness spiders almost identically. Used greyish blue and about the same browns and looks trippy. BTW. I have a question. Do you paint shadow areas in shadow colours or just colour of that element and whatever shadow is casted there. If you know what I mean.

[@bladieeightwheels]

I have wanted to make a galrauch dragon conversion for aos. Been in resarch for almost a year still can't find the basis for this any advice?

[@leejohnhernandez7935]

Ok when I layer, and I’m new to this. When my mini dries, it leaves awful streaks with transparent patches of paint. Did I thin my paint to much or to little, I also use distilled water to thin my paints. Any advice from you fellow painters?

[@ThePaintingClinic]

May have too much paint on your brush. Wipe it a few more times on your towel before putting it to use.

[@MojaveMuse]

reminds me of a Mantis Shrimp. :)

[@bryal7811]

Straight out of "Flight of Dragons"

[@ephemeraldgames]

I think it's beautiful but don't really see red or orange in the scheme at all, which is fine, just seems you lost the "every color" idea. I think it worked out for the best though :)
