I have been labouring hard at the campaign setting and scenarios up until now, so not much in the way of paint. I hope to bring out something Matakishi style that could be used for whatever system people fancy.

And yes, there will be paint as well!

W.O.W. I had totally forgotten about Dinoriders, or the bad guys that were reptile-men. Their creators must have been geeks like us.
Actually I already was a little too old to get totally into it, but I was very fascinated by the weirdness of the whole concept.

from about the same time as those five-elements animal warriors with the heat sensitive adesive on their armour. Just after Blackstar, basically.

A shot of my Saurian Mercenary Company: The Pink Primates

Group Shot

A Merc Squad, complete with Squad AT Weapon and Squad Sharpshooter. The NCO has a hand cannon and chainsword (in case I want to get my RT on) whilst the privates wield "Hoo-Man" Assault rifles.

The CO of the Company, General Lilensternus, known as "Thin Lizzy" by his enemies because of his slight (for a Saurian) build. He wields a weapon called a "Pow Fist", it's great at opening beer.

Thin Lizzy's prized dino, known as "Devil", it has a thing for eating monkeys.

More to come, just hunting for bits.

I saw some of that work previously, very brilliant! Makes my work look like sh**... But I think her work is maybe too high tech for my Saurians.

I am almost done with my first dino and will give it a black undercoat too see how things work out without all the clashing colours and parts. Maybe it will work out.

I have been looking for a shovel though

OK, first off, sorry if this update is a bit messy, but I haven't slept for 36 hours. I have been up all night sorting through my leadpile for bits.

I have trying to get a bit order into it all, but I guess it will never happen 100%

So I put on some bits to my Dinosaurs and used some bluetack (white) to try out some different things.

At the beginning of this project I wanted to stay clear of as many GW parts as possible, but as it turns out, a huge part of my collection is mainly made up of GW miniatures and bits, so ind the end I stopped trying and just added some stuff I thought looked good.

Most of this stuff is not glued on yet, so if this really look like garbage I can always alter on it.

For the bigger guy here I have added some ancient Rhino APC parts as armor on the sides (I am thinking to connect this with a belt under the belly), I put on a search light up front, some Copplestone power armor arm became sensors on the head.

I am beginning to think this set up will work out for him and I might glue everything in place and begin with the greenstuffing.

Any objections?

The other Dino is almost done.... Though I might change a bit on it.

I am beginning to think that the hightech/lowtech opposites look pretty good, so hightech on the guns and the rider and low tech on the leather belt holding the gun and I have added a shovel and a wooden crate. So now I am beginning to thing the saddlebag on the side is a bit out of place, so I consider removing that one and maybe go look for one more small wooden box or similar.

Right side - Modern saddlebag...

Left side - Wooden crate...

I have greenstuffed on the last one, so the different parts are beginning to fit together. The boiler stuff on the back also have some wooden boxes and a blanket rolled up, so again a bit on the low tech side.

Let me know what you think.

Thanks.
