Converting:

  • a small amount of green stuff

After cleaning the mould lines, first clip off the Saurus tail, then file the inside of the Saurus legs. To help the Saurus Warrior fit onto the plastic Cold One, cut and reposition the Saurus feet. With the aid of a small amount of green stuff fill all the gaps and create a new tail for the Saurus model.

Painting: Start by spraying the model with black undercoat. Using this as a base colour then flesh out the model with a mixture of Hawk Turquoise and Black. To create highlights continue to add more Hawk Turquoise and for the final highlight add Bleached Bone. For the Saurus Warrior use a mixture of Black and Scaly Green, the highlights are created by adding more Scaly Green and for the final highlight again add Bleached Bone. The spear point and shield are both painted with Dwarf Bronze with a Chestnut Ink wash. To finish the model add small details such as painting on some small patterns and picking out the eyes and teeth.
