Self made Tarrasque

Posted by

Marchomer –

Unfocused pic of my self made tarrasque I've created some years ago, with huge use of toothpicks, glue, wires made of iron, green stuff and DAS (an italian stuff similar to the clay, I don't know how is called out of Italy :S)

Awesome work!

Yes we have DAS in the UK (and the US I believe) under the same name

Hehe. Cute. For when you absolutely, positively, have to kill every last party member in the room.

Got any pics of its construction?

Nice sculpt. Any chance of getting a photo with another mini for scale? Tarrasques are ment to be pretty huge as I remember.

Thanks a lot!
Unfortunately I have no pic about his construction! I totally get hung up by the project that I didn't take any photo!
As soon as a friend of mine give it back to me (he needed it for his D&D campaign) I will post something else.
The minature have a circular base of 6" in diameter, and is about 8" in height, I used it in a game only one time during the conclusion of a D&D campaign.

I did it, the Tarrasque comes back to his home! As I said, here the other pics with other miniatures and the Heroquest board. PS: I remembered wrong, in height is about 6", not 8"

Dude that's a Tarrasque, a “Great-reptilian-punisher sent by the gods to devour the world” thus in most campaigns, only one Tarrasque exists on each world.
Battles with a Tarrasque go something like this:

DM: A Tarrasque arrives on the table; you die, you die, you die and you die. Time roll up new characters guys!

Thanks! You're right... every time I start a model I always forgot to take some pictures! (Maybe bacause I'm lazy)
