Flash Gordon - Rock Monster

My latest addition - a giant of a model standing over 100mm tall, A Rock Monster. The miniature is an Earth Titan from the D&D Collectible Miniature Game (code; 33/60 B/W147) bought via e-bay for £4.99. Given how big this particular miniature is - this is a real bargain! To give some idea of just how big it is - the Graven Images, Mongo Trooper alongside is 36mm tall and mounted on a 40mm round base.


The model was re-based on to an 80mm resin base from Fenris Games and the groundwork built up with DAS modelling clay and cork pieces. Before painting I re-modelled a number of seams with 'green stuff' and undercoated the model and base with PVA glue. The static grass and ground foam were added after the model was varnished with water based matt acrylic varnish.

The model is 100mm tall and mounted on to a 80mm round base, see;

Wow, what a piece of art. The rock texture as well as the depth and realism in the overgrowth is wonderful. The fact that you can see the dark dirty under layer under the patches of green really adds to the realism.

Just plain wow...
