    and apparently they are plannign to release some bigger beasts, which might make good Carnosaurs (or heck, Rhinosaurs for the KoW crowd)

    i'm not sure i like the "minimally feathered" raptors (i'm ok Jurassic park look in fantasy/fiction, and i like the accurate fully feathered look, but i hate when people just toss a few feathers onto the JP look. that's not how feathers work) but the Troodons look nice and the other species they have look decent, and from a fantasy standpoint they'd work well.

    Nice models!

    I was looking around for some bigger models and found this website:
    https://www.everythingdinosaur.com/

    a lot of dinosaur toys to use and convert ;)

    Gr, Imrahil

    those drowned earth models are nice but they are metal so they would be hard to convert

    Good find! I like these guys a lot!

    Especially the "dilos" :vamp:

    And the "domeheads!" :banghead::joyful:

    The artwork on their first page is pretty epic too.

    I bought and painted this guy not long ago!

    I really like how the model turned out overall, but it definitely had some gaps and wonky assembly. Didn't line up on the base well, and I got two left-rear legs instead of a left and right rear-leg. Had to get creative :artist::banghead:

    Worth the pickup if you like the classic sally models.

    Found another set of painted Frostgrave sailback models (salamanders), here used for a Saurian Ancients army:

    Finally finished up both my Drowned Earth crews:

    warden20220216_drowned earth_militia and the firm.jpg

    The Militia:

    The Firm:

    My favorite is still the chasmid Makko:

    Rest of my pictures are in my other hobby blog; hope to get more of these guys at some point! The rulebook fluff was a fun read too.
