    That's sad. But maybe one arm from the skinkbox will fit. The on with the bigger hand weapon would seem fitting to me. You can change the blade if you have some other bits around... Simply cutting and gluing...

    Kroq-Kar on Carnosaur

    The old metal Carnosaur is certainly a small fellow compared to the plastic version

    Yes... I always found that the metal version looks more like a agil predator like a raptor and the plastic one seems more like a trex or allosaurus... Big and deadly but also a bit slow to react..

    Time to Sprue-ce (spruce) things up... just wanted to work that in xd

    IMG_1855.JPG

    So I always think this excess plastic is wasteful - In the past I've kept it only to get rid of it - My main thinking is it would be good to make railway segments and or small bricks out of - What does everyone else use these for if anything?

    I usually use it to get the air out of the garbage can... ;)
    But I can imagine using it as an armature for something... Something bigger... Or for trees roots and stuff like that.

    I do a lot of shaving when I cut my models of the sprue I use the blade to slice thin layer of plastic off at a time so it would be nice to shape them into roots that way :D

    I cut these up and made bricks for Mario and Luigi. Lots of scenery can be made, but normally 40K ruins!

    I'm still so amazed that Oxyotl is sold separately 'now'... When I got mine he was in a blister together with the old tenihueni or how he was called in these days... ;)

    OK really nice models incoming... But in the 8 pages of this blog there is not a single one painted by you yourself :joyful:. When will that come? :p
    Edit: I was wrong, I found 8 fully painted models (out of 8 pages), one regiment of skinks and some WIPs. You still need to paint more and buy less though ;)
