    Hello, my name is Skulk.
    I am a Neophyte to the majority of AOS and Fantasy, but have dabbled in the lore parts of 40k for some time, and only recently started getting into miniatures within the last year, having painted and built a fair number of Privateer Press's Monsterpocalypse models.

    however I saw and fell in love with the reptilian and amphibian forces of the Seraphon at the big reveal of the range refresh a few weeks ago, so i hunted down a store with AOS players and has a fair number of seraphon models to buy.

    i chose one that looked neat, the razordon hunting pack. I have been told this was in error due to the Razordon no longer being a unit in this new update, so I was seeking to pass it off as a Spawn of Chotec, to who its old companion the Salamander was updated to. but uh the 105 MM base i got for his upgrade is a lot larger than he. are there any ideas for basing or something i can do to not make him look so pathetic?

    Additionally, i am in the works of acquiring a start collecting Carnosaur box, and have been told to make all the sauras inside into warriors, disregarding their mounts. ive seen the get the most out of the box thread, which excites me, but im just looking for ideas for the dinosaur mounts and what else i need to make an army....

    Well... Knights cannot be made as warriors as they are fused with saddles, so you'll only get those 12 and 8 knights. But! I read that some players (myself included) plan to put two knights on bigger base (to be revealed) as lancers, so if you go this way, you'll get one unit of lancers from that box.
    I can't help with razordon as I don't have one to begin with.

    Knights are no longer used (same as razordons) and technically replaced by bigger models on bigger bases that come in units of 3. Exact size of base is not known yet, but probably 75x42 (or something like it), so single saurus knight would be surrounded by a lot of empty space.

    What do you mean? In terms of painting? Or composition on base?
