Is it meant to have petrified over time or due to an unfortunate encounter with a gorgon or jabberwock or something in which case it should be posed trying to cover its eyes before being frozen.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/217074/364090.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/217074/364090.page GMT Petrified Corpse Test Piece

I thought it looked like a fallen statue too. It looks very neat. Maybe you can keep it as a fallen statue and use it as a cool base for another mini.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/217074/364091.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/217074/364091.page GMT Petrified Corpse Test Piece
I'm eventually going for a pyroclastic cloud event ( like Pompeii ) finally being eroded away to reveal the petrified corpses.

The next test peice will be horizontally mounted, as if a skirmish was enveloped by the cloud.

Nice idea about using it as a base tho, hadn't thought of that !]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/217074/364094.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/217074/364094.page GMT Petrified Corpse Test Piece MB non-advanced version)?]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/217074/364191.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/217074/364191.page GMT Petrified Corpse Test Piece

I think it was, it's been loitering at the bottom of my bits box for years]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/217074/364275.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/217074/364275.page GMT Petrified Corpse Test Piece GW used to sell in boxes of 8 and bundle in with paint sets, It is similar to the heroquest one you are thinking of though.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/217074/364442.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/217074/364442.page GMT Petrified Corpse Test Piece
EDIT; Oh, it's not meant to be a base. Nevermind. Kind of small for a scenery piece though,

EDIT; I also now read 'test piece'.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/217074/365306.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/217074/365306.page GMT Petrified Corpse Test Piece
I'd also say to go a little less heavy on whatever you used to cover the model with - it's covered enough detail that it's hard to tell that it's a humanoid and not a rock.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/217074/365340.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/217074/365340.page GMT Petrified Corpse Test Piece

I see your point about the flock, I was a little heavy handed, and thanks for the suggestion about the ghouls. I was planning on skeletons for the final peices but the ghouls might just be the better way to go after all.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/217074/365358.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/217074/365358.page GMT
