 LASH x Dragamel
Its been awhile since I posted any customs because I recently moved.
Here is a commission I just finished for a board member.
Sorry for the bad pics but my living room table has to do untill I can get a set up.
So here ya go
LASH x Dragamel
Its hard to tell from the crappy lighting but that is metallic bronze not just brown and the green is very vibrant in person.

Everyone's made great customs with the Dragamel. I think this is one of my favorites so far.

When I first saw the mini drag I have to admit I wasnt crazy. Then the full size came and it was better but didnt do anything for me still. Than along came a commission and once I had him in had it was a whole new feeling. The sculpt is insane and SO much with paint can be done. For Biskup toys this is the best hands down !!
It can be cute or menacing depending on the paint app. Such a versatile sculpt
I really enjoyed doing this and hope to do another in the future.

WOW Rich, you really nailed this one down - FANTASTIC ! I never felt drawn to the Lg. Dragamel, I think it had to do with all the extra neck joints, too busy for me. But I have to say, the way you painted it made them work much better. You are one very talented guy
