Lately I've been thinking a lot about my big summer project, which is my zombie dragon which I started building before I came out to Oz. I've got most of the parts I need to create an rather swish converted rider, barring the head. Anyone got any ideas for this? The rider is going to be based loosely on the Archaon model, so it needs to fit in with the body there. I've had a search on the interweb and I'm struggling to find anything that fits the bill. I might even have to attempt to sculpt something, though if I did, there would be very little face showing. Possibly just the eyes and top of the nose, with a samurai or persian (if you've seen 300) style mask covering most of the face. So yes, give me ideas.
Also, whilst I'm at it, I'd like to do some minor tweaks to the zombie dragon itself as well. I've already repositioned the neck so it's more parallel to the ground, and I've converted a Dark Elf beastmaster to be carried in it's mouth. Aside from some fur and a saddle at it's neck-to-body joint, to disguise the repositioning, and some reins, I'm at a loss at what other little bits I can do to the model. Once more, any forthcoming suggestions will be most gratefully considered!
Cheers,

Could we see pictures?

Not for a while, the model is on the other side of the planet. But it's Archaon's body, and just the regular zombie dragon model pretty much, so I don't really think I need to stick pics up at the mo.
When I've made some actual progress, I'll upload some images though.
Cheers,

I'm converting a Blood dragon for someone and have a couple of spare vampire heads; if you cant find anything then let me know and I'll throw them your way. <_<
Not sure what you want to do for a head, but I think the zombie dragon would look cool (not to mention, virtually impervious) if you stuck some nasty weapons into it, for instance a few spears imbedded into on of it's flanks, perhaps a greatsword stuck in it's neck, and so on. While your at it, nothing says unkillable vampire lord like a runefang sticking out of his chest.
