I finally managed tp base this "Dumbo" and his crew. I used a photo frame to base it, filled with woodfiller, sand and little rocks. On top I finished it with Games Workshop moddeling sand.
What me really gave trouble was the crew inside the tower. There was only one possible way to get them in it, as shown on the pictures.
I also used two different backgrounds, because I didn't knew wich one was best.
Enjoy the pictures!
Hope you like it!
Nice work & photography! Best, Dean

Excellent job ! Your painting really enhances the model
BeantwoordenVerwijderen@Dean: thanks and welcome!
BeantwoordenVerwijderen@Paul: thanks! I know about the sand, but you don't get that result. The white sand needs allways to be painted.
@sebastosfig: thanks!

Fantastic Peter. I quite like the frame-as-base. I take it this is for display, rather than gaming?
BeantwoordenVerwijderenThanks FMB!
BeantwoordenVerwijderenYes it's only for display. I don't game, but I like to paint mini's and create something with them.

I dont play either :D I think having these two big stones behind the elephant gives the scene that little bit extra beach/desert diorama feel, nice!
BeantwoordenVerwijderenThanks Piotr! I always to get the attention to the model, so scenery stays minor on this work.
