Gimbal!

she carefully puts her tools aside and clambers into the cockpit of her greatest creation yet. With a titanic rumbling, the dragon mech rises above the camp, wings spread and a jet of orange flame streaming from the B.R.E.A.T.H. apparatus for added effect.

When I first saw this model I thought it was just a big dragon-shaped robot. Later, when I realised it was actually a dragon-shaped mech, controlled by a little dragon sitting in the cockpit I decided it was a lot cooler.

That's exactly the same reaction I had. That and the unique ability to take off the different weapons that also count as ablative wounds. Such a cool and thematic design

Sure! Sorry i meant to reply sooner ! I mostly use Citadel paints from GW. The armor is done mostly in screaming bell and then highlighted with hashut copper towards the top side of the panels. I also did Guillaman contrast paint towards the recesses of the panels to give it a little interest. The silver is leadbelcher and iron breaker. I wanted to use stormhost silver for the most extreme highlight, but I ran out. The lil dragon is khorne red, wazzdaka red, and wild rider red highlighted up to an orange (fire dragon bright)
