...already wishing I had ordered more raptors!!!!

looks like You are heading straight into a lot of work

but I think it is well worth it. Are the riding ladies attached to the saddle? I guess so, this will spare You a lot of trouble.
if You are heading into dino-land, there are a lot more ideas to share.
Unfortunately I'm stuck in "development hell" with this project for I still don't have a concept for all those Lizardmen and Dinos and how their PJ shall look.
I also found out that the GW mounted saurus go very well with Kroot arms, in case You might think of indigen adversaries a bit further developed than "savages with bows"

Anyway, I am full of admiration for Your home projects and have been watching right from the very start when You painted the houses ;-)
