I have posted some pictures up on our Blog of these winged non-humans.

A full selection of pictures is in the photo section of the Tekumel or TekumelMinis-War yahoo groups.

Hope you like them.

Nice! Much better sculpts than the originals I have! Like to see your take on the Sró!

Ahh, but those originals must be 30 years old (or so?)

Hadn't thought much about a Sro. Serudla - OTOH - yes, but will have to wait until we can do the Ghatoni to go with it.

The Sró is an interesting model (I have two, for some reason!) but I never got around to finishing it, mainly because those six legs would take more cleanup than I was prepared to give them at the time.  Too bad they weren't separate like the arms.  I also had visions of those wings drooping sooner rather than later.  They're pretty heavy.

The only Ahoggyá I have are the original over-sized versions.  I never got a chance to see the scale ones that were supposedly produced later.  They were an interesting sculpt but, like the others, they will definitely benefit from a redesign.

I like these much better than the Shen (just my stylistic view.)

But than I try and introduce "air force" elements in all my games.

Gracias,
