    I'd pay the £150 for a dread saurian, but when they add on £20 for shipping it takes the biscuit a little bit.

    I'm going to warhammer world the week after next so maybe I'll pull the trigger! Kind of sitting on that money for one of the new releases coming up though... Elvey elves!

    A model that I will have to promptly carve up and convert so that I will enjoy it. Risky business working with resin. Could be 200 dollars down the drain

    They had one in the display area and one in the shop, the one in the shop is terrible, bad fitting joints, but you may see something else to spend your cash on!

    Probably... I am going to carry on resisting for now, I'm not letting myself buy anything else until the current lot is finished anyway.

    Don't tempt me!

    We exchange on our new house today, so I sense a lot of packing and moving in my future... Going to delay painting a lot I think :(

    Seriously, stress levels through the roof the past couple of days signing stuff - and worse - handing over our hard saved cash!!! I'm hoping that's the end of it. Working next week then got myself a week off - so planning on at least a couple of days of painting before I pack everything away. If I can get the warriors all finished that'd be a massive load off.

    Definitely, 100%... Not. Buying. Anything. Else. Before. I. Finish. These.

    Phew... Dwarves not up for pre-order yet!

    Haha I'm in the same boat as everyone else. I have sylvaneth start collecting box and I found an amazing deal on the Christmas box with the 3 treemen kits and 40 dryads. Lots of trees in my future.

    Nice... I sense brown in your future!

    I was super tempted by Sylvaneth when I was picking which army to go with first - the turn off was the lack of variety in their units - small brown tree, middlesized brown tree, big brown tree... Even when you throw in doing different seasons and things with them, they're still all trees!

    Apart from that big one riding a bug. She's pretty rad.

    I like this one a lot too... pretty awesome model!



    Anybody remember this other also awesome model? I figure it should be posted here, even thought it is not technically a Dread Saurian instead more of a stand-in for SOTEK HIMSELF (take that Nagash)

    Model courtesy of @raptorman, link to this image and his army blog!

    Description of where the model comes from in the quote below:

    The use of this model was awesome in this army. One can dream :rolleyes:
