My Top 10 of the most epic dragon tabletop miniature models!


Like most fantasy wargamers and miniature enthusiasts, I love dragons. These huge, powerful creatures have been fascinating me since I began reading Fantasy Lore and started playing miniature wargames like Warhammer. It seems dragons have always been at the top of the food chain when it comes to big, epic miniatures. There are a lot of dragons from various companies out there and it isn't easy to keep track of all of them since some of them won`t be produced anymore.

As of now I only painted 2 dragons, a forest dragon by Forgeworld I painted 2014 and a Zombie Dragon by Games Workshop. I can't wait for the next dragon miniature I am going to put some color on. In researching various models of amazing fantasy dragon miniature sculpts I created a list of my personal Top 10.

Tho following list consists of Dragons and Wyverns, which are very similar. The key difference is that a wyvern has two legs and wings, whereas a dragon has four legs and wings.


#10 Nocturna Models: Khaegar 



#9 Forgeworld: Warpfire Dragon



#8 Kingdom Death: Dragon King 




#7 Karol Rudyk Art: Gorthang the Swamp Master




#6 Heresy Miniatures: Dragon 




#5 Lost Kingdom Miniatures: Quetzalcoatl, the feathered Goddess



#4 Games Workshop: Smaug


#3 CMON: Cang the Implacable



#2 Karol Rudyk Art: Xardrax the Ancient



#1 Mythic Games: Time of legends Joan of Arc, Legendary Dragon




Wow, these dragon sculpts are just mind-blowing! What are your favorite dragon models?

    Lighting is very crucial because iguanas need UV light to produce vitamin D3. Vitamin D helps with absorption of calcium. Without enough vitamin D or calcium, your iguana will risk having weak bones and immune system. iguana heat lamp

The Sylvaneth of the Cherry Blossom Grove

  The Sylvaneth of the Cherry Blossom Grove is marching to war. I recently finished 3 trees (Treeman Ancient, ordinary Treeman, and the Spirit of Durthu) for the army and now the force is nearly finished. The foundation of the Cherry Blossom Grove lies in the Old Days of Warhammer where the majority of the army consisted of Wood Elves ( Link to an old blog article from 2014 ). Since then a lot of new miniatures have been painted and added to the army and I still plan to extend the Cherry Blossom Grove further in the next couple of months and years. Painting Alarielle of course and some more Kurnoth Hunters and even thinking about a Living City detachment of the Cities of Sigmar battletome. The Sylvaneth treemen of the Cherry Blossom Grove: I converted them a little bit by extending their legs for 1-2 inches to make them taller and put some branches of the old Citadel Forest on their shoulders and backs to make them bigger.

Starting a Tyranid army: Colorscheme

I've been a miniature hobbyist for over 10 years and have played a lot of different games (Warhammer Fantasy, Infinity, Frostgrave, Malifaux, Kings of War, etc.) but still hunger for more. In my gaming group, my friends convinced me to take a look at the Warhammer 40k lore. After reading a dozen books (Horus Heresy!) and pretty much got sucked into the crazy 40k lore, I decided to get into Warhammer 40.000.  As for my first 40k army choice, I was torn between the Childs of Slaanesh and Tyranids. Really love both design and lore of these 2 armies. Finally, I went with Tyranids because they are easy to paint and I wanted to get more into the lore before heavily converting some Slaanesh forces. Also, there are some stunning non-GW Tyranid designs out there (check out this Instagram account: https://www.instagram.com/artbyhalfpint/ ) and I was very curious how these models would turn out. To say it upfront: These 3D printed resin miniatures have some amazing details and very high quali
