eldar dragonship
This Dragonship needed a lot of work to correct various mould imperfections and some casting issues. I magnetised the prow/keel weapon options, replaced one of the prow weapon options with one of my own design and updated the look of the solar sail.date: 2020 - present (work-in-progress)
components: 1x Battlefleet Gothic Eldar Dragonship, brass rod, Green Stuff, neodymium magnets, transparent flying base (60mm diameter)

1. The component pieces of the Dragonship. The cast had several issues (being an eBay purchase, I suspect it may have been a recast of the original model).
2. The Dragonship is nearly ready to be undercoated at this stage.
