I HATE the current dragon ogre models, the old style ogre torso and head they are stuck with strikes more laughter than fear into an opponent.

A while ago i tried to sculpt my own and it worked out well apart from the head, but next one ended up a head taller than the first.



So now I am trying to sculpt a new Dragon Ogre, based on the shaggoth pose, that I can Resin cast.



I'm Planing to cast it without arms or head, so that each model has a unique look without an obvious change in height.


And just for the hell of it (and to add an unblurred photo) my chaos dragon or 2 headed flying carnosaur



Comments welcomed

that carnie head is v good]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/230871/578309.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/230871/578309.page GMT http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/230871/578786.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/230871/578786.page GMT http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/230871/578793.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/230871/578793.page GMT
Yes, those are the balrog wings, the warhammer dragon wings were awful when I made that dragon.

Sculpting muscles;

First create a hard chest shaped blob of greenstuff

then, starting at the top add a blob of greenstuff for each peck, to size, and shape it with a soft sculpting tool (see http://www.rai-ro.de/katalog/shaper.jpg)
Work your way down

See How to sculpt a 35mm Knight at this site http://mandragoreminiatures.free.fr/menututorials.htm for a better idea

more updates soon

the dragon ogre looks to be shaping up nicely. are you going to be adding armor? i've always wanted to see a dragon ogre in chaos armor, even though they can't have it in game....well, except for kholek suneater.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/230871/580263.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/230871/580263.page GMT GS skills are somewhat amazing

But even that leaves it a little to tall, compared with a stencil I produced on photoshop



So I need to do a little more resizeing work

As asked here is a close up of the carnie head, I find that sculpting from an original is far easier than sculpting a scaled down, or completely new model

A little further to go with the dragon ogre still.


Claws, scales, straps and back spikes done.

The skull is there as a base to sculpt the face onto.

I've cast the orginal green in resin in two parts (tail and body), losing many of the spiky bits in the process

one is currently having the arms and head sculpted


the next is almost finished painting



and the last (center right) has just come out the mold


Hands are from ogres as i can't sculpt them right and weapons are converted from flag poles and ogre swords
