Many Mithril Pages @ Faerylands

Well, I foud some old pics in my private gallery. Though they're not unusual as I tried to paint the dragon according to the colour-scheme presented on the box many many years ago.











That's all I can find at the moment.

I don't know what Scurfs are, master Christoph!  Are they related to scrumpy?

In any case, I agree with Christoph.  This is brilliant, subtle painting!  The scales look wonderful, the expressiveness of the eyes, face, etc.  Great!  You (and the rest of the gang as well) should post more of your fine stuff!! 

There are only about 5-6 people that routinely post art, but I know there are more artists on the site than that. 

Impressive sight! (Oh my, I think I will hide my own painted stuff even further towards the bottom of my treasure chest.)

Well, scurfs are the dragon´s skin, I suppose?! Tell me.

scales it is called Master rita.de , but it really didn't matter, because everyone knew what you where talking about anyhow!

No need to be sorry, Master OA. Not at all. Everything is all right.   Look at facebook . . .
And thank you dear friend Master Caster. I will put the word inside my vocabulary. 

You must find some time to paint few miniatures. I would like to see your new painting work master tree... this Scatha in nice painted !

Thank you all ... thank you very much.
As I have some time now watching the entries of this year's Christmas riddle I can spend some time on providing some more pics. Alas, you cannot know that I do like dragons sculpted by Master Tubb. So here are some more very old pics of the 'Cold Drake'. Again I tried to paint that beast according to the picture on the box.









and here you can see how light can cheat you ....

These are grey and soft-blue colours ! ... except that bit of orange in the face, some yellow in the eyes ... you see, sun's cheating ... blue turns to appear green and grey gets some touch of metal ...
That's why I do not like to provide pics of my paintings here ... photography will never be able to show reality as I witness it ... well, then I'm a bad photographer, too ..

Well, and it was MB397 ... the cold drake of the withered heath ... he was the last figure before what I like to call "The dark ages of Mithril" began ... the Nightwatch was the last M-release then.
There were two boxed sets, one was Shelob's lair and the other was the cold drake ... then it ended .... rhuoommmm ... it took years before a new start was made with the releases of the limited LR-series ... new shape of the bases, new packages including painting-suggestions ... yes, I do remember well ... but what exactly is a decade?

As you seem to share my passion for those dragons, Master Rita.de I just had a look and found pics of good-old Uruloki ... the one that cannot fly ...





nice guy, isn't he? ... well I have to tame him a bit more ... when time will come
