'Armour' from MilesR: Red Dragon

 My submission for the "Armor" Bonus Round is a hastily prepared Red Dragon from the Reaper Bones line.  Why is he facing off against a Panzer III (painted two challenges ago) - because that will be the theme of my Historicon game "DAK and Dragons" - the first historically accurate depiction of Tank on Dragon combat in North Africa put on at a major US convention.

 As I said in my recent Saturday submission the material Reaper uses for it's Bones line doesn't work that well for small/thin figures but is just about perfect for really large pieces like the dragon, which is about 12 inches high (top of the wing tips).  The price is also really reasonable.

The model was fun to paint and detail

 It's also very sturdy as I've managed to drop it twice during the painting process without any damage.

 Here's a shot next to 2 28mm Perry French Foreign Legion figures to give another hint of the scale of the model.

 The obligatory ruler shot.

There does seem to be an armored scale missing from the dragon's armored scale coat.  Maybe an well trained Panzer III gunner can put a 50mm AP round through it?

I seem to remember this plot point from some other piece of work...
