I had a spare Carnosaur and set of Dragon wings laying around, so since I don't care much for the current LoTR dragon sculpt, i thought I'd convert my own.
very first basecoat(s), so lots of work yet to be done....

I love the Carnosaur model! There's a great Carnosaur-to-Dragon conversion in the Bretonnian army book that I really like. I was very disappointed to find that it was a conversion and not available for sale. I Like what you've done with this model, but it just doesn't feel very Tolkien-esque to me. His describing them as wyrms and having long sinuous bodies puts me more in mind of the more snake-like Oriental depictions of dragons. Don't take that as criticism, as there are many interpretations of Tolkien and your vision of his dragons is as valid as the rest! |

That aside, it's a nice looking model you've made and I look forward to seeing it finished. Good luck

What an excellent idea!! Loving it! You should wait a bit longer to paint it, so you can take part in the September monster challenge...  Although, I can imagine a figure like that yells to get a nice coat of paint! |

Thank you everyone I thought about waiting to paint it for the challenge, but I just could not wait to start painting it. I was saving it as a reward for finishing half my infantry for my Isengard army. I do have a few other models that I can use for Sept. challenge if it is the Monster. |

Great progress on the dragon! You must show it us from some more angles when you finish it. |

The dragon is looking brilliant. Just brilliant. I also love the perfect paint job on the scouts. Not a brush stroke out of place. Awesome stuff. |
