I blame JollyBob, Thunderchicken, Malamute et al

"We have been stuck on this blasted plateau for over six months now and although there were rumours nothing was confirmed. No one really believed Cpl. Baines' report of seeing towels on the beach whilst scouting the giant crabs. Well its bloody well true, the Hun is over the other side of the valley and they have domesticated some kind of ornithological beast as a riding mount to boot. Whatever next? Would'nt surprise me now if I was to look up into the clouds and see a damned Frog in a lighter than air flying machine"

Wonderful stuff, cracking paint job too.

Those are very neat and well painted.

You wouldn't want to upset the mount though would you

Can't wait to see it ! 

By the way, very nice conversion, and great choice of colours, especially the green.

That is outstanding!    I love being blamed for stuff that's this good.

[Skrapwelder]

Very nice; but really, when Fritz said he mounted birds I assumed he was a taxidermist.

[Captain Blood]

Nice work Svennn. Great colours on that birdie-dino thing... 

[Geudens]

Very nice, indeed! (Is it a man?... Is it a bird?... etc  )

Lovely.

[Chairface]

So vibrant! I love the colours.

[BigMecha]

very NICE!!!

[argsilverson]

Very nice. Colours and conversion very nice.

the bird is copplestone (terror bird)?

For my taste, I would have gone to black/red scheme for those birds?
Yours is much better!

[Svennn]

Thanks for alll the comments. He is now in the Bazar @ £12.00 inc. postage if anybody fancies adding him to their collection.

The beast is an old Citadel C29 Large Monster - Giant Carniverous Bird and the rider a Foundry FPW.

Lovely work Svennn. So are you telling us you have the VSF bug?

[fastolfrus]

But a real challenge would be a giant toucan pulling a brewer's dray full of Irish navvies....
