The gnome model has a sculpted saddle but just sits on the back of the Ibex.  I&#8217;ll pin him on there to make him stay but it didn&#8217;t seem very realistic to me.  Enter the green stuff!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"450\" src=\"http:\/\/pimpmyboardgame.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Relicblade_3142-600x450.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-11923\" srcset=\"http:\/\/pimpmyboardgame.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Relicblade_3142-600x450.jpg 600w, http:\/\/pimpmyboardgame.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Relicblade_3142-400x300.jpg 400w, http:\/\/pimpmyboardgame.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Relicblade_3142-198x149.jpg 198w, http:\/\/pimpmyboardgame.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Relicblade_3142-768x576.jpg 768w, http:\/\/pimpmyboardgame.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Relicblade_3142.jpg 800w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I sculpted a quick saddle belt to give some illusion that the saddle was actually secure on the animal.  I later ran some thin green stuff ropes from the Ibex mouth to the gnome gauntlet to give a bit and bridle as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"450\" src=\"http:\/\/pimpmyboardgame.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Relicblade_3236-600x450.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-11931\" srcset=\"http:\/\/pimpmyboardgame.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Relicblade_3236-600x450.jpg 600w, http:\/\/pimpmyboardgame.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Relicblade_3236-400x300.jpg 400w, http:\/\/pimpmyboardgame.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Relicblade_3236-198x149.jpg 198w, http:\/\/pimpmyboardgame.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Relicblade_3236-768x576.jpg 768w, http:\/\/pimpmyboardgame.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Relicblade_3236.jpg 800w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After that, I made a base with some cork, primed him up and did a quick paint scheme.
