My, it's ben a while since I had a proper go at converting anything. Now, naturally, I'm doing it the hard way.
I have in my possession one Citadel Zombie Dragon, released circa 1994, purchased by myself sort of october-ish last year, languishing in a drawer since. Now though, I am free of universitish commitments and can make toys. Today I based said grisly monster thus:
The base is made from pieces of slate I found in the street 'trimmed' with a hammer & glued with epoxy resin, and I don't need to hassle the ZD for now, though a couple of gaps still need filling.
The hard part is the rider. I have already decided not to use the Wight rider, I'll find a better use for him, most likely as a Battle Standard Bearer. That can wait. The monster to ride this monster is a fully scratch-built Carstein Vampire Lord with some enormous halberdy type blade, all flowing cloaks & drama. Currently said Lord is a rudimentary figure of wire & Milliput, and I don't know exactly what he's going to look like yet. Your humble artisan shall keep Sirs posted.
Incidentally, I have used the pickled onion jar since I started painting models when I was 12. As you may gather from a certain other thread, I began with Ultramarines.
