    tiamat here is the 3rd in command (scion is the leader, harbinger is second) and field general of the group. in other words, hes the one leading the troops into battle. and also the one that gets blamed when things go wrong lol

    this is the second outrider i did after zarathos. thats kinda why hes sparsly painted. i really had no idea what i was doing with these guys back then (circa 2000). i still think something should be done with his wings, and i could probly throw some more small details on him

    a bit of trivia about this guy. he is ENTIRELY handpainted. i did him before i discovered the joys of spraypaint. so all the bits of blue that show are cause of this lol hes also a mix of flat and gloss paint. i didnt know the difference back then between the two lol

    still, i think i did a pretty good job for not know what i was doing lol

    ive got one is doesnt look too good on...

    forgot to mention: he has no tail or "horns" on his head cause i didnt know how to get the paint to dry on the type of rubber theyre made of so i just ripped em off lol (now i know to use acryllic paints on rubber). i may have used some acryllic on his neck cause it did dry (thankfully), but if i did it was pure luck
