    I'm flattered :D
    It did take quite a while to paint as well, so it's nice that I'm not the only one who thinks it turned out quite well.

    But on another note, I hope there'll be more entries - everyone just waiting till the last minute mayhaps?
    Or maybe it's the summertime, giving people less time to paint.

    I have an entry ready to submit. I'm just waiting to see if I manage to finish another in time and then pick between the two.

    I am actively working on mine. Kiddo refused to give me back "his" toy, so I spent two weeks wondering what else to paint and ultimately bought the same toy dino, which arrived late as they had it in stock on webstore, but in reality, they were out and ordered them from supplier only after I paid. :D
    It will be tight, but I should make it in time. :)

    I'm very much looking forward to see what you've cooked up - everything I've seen of your work has been very nice, clean and colorful without it ever feeling like it's too much.

    Here is my attempt, lets see if you can spot him:

    And now for a better look at him, this is Otaptl of the Starblood Stalkers.

    If he doesn't classify as a Hero I will say it is my version of Oxyotl ;)

    Grrr, !mrahil

    My kitbashed toy dino enters :D

    Remnant of ancient spawning pool, this mount might be old and worn, but savagery still runs through it´s veins. Gorak, the Daemon-Slayer of the Fossilised Ark found it surrounded by dead horrors and brought him back from brink of death. Since then, they share bond as well as righteous vengeance against daemons.

    Gorak the Oldblood

    I thought that it is allowed if it is a collage, but when I read rules again now sleep deprived, I can't decide if that rule means "three pictures, single collage of three photos is still three photos" or "three pictures, collage count as one"

    I edited post for now, just to be sure.
    @Killer Angel , could you explain it to me as if I am 5 years old? :D

    Mmmm...
    The limit of 3 pics was to avoid extra work for me and to limit people from posting 10 images of a model.
    A collage would be manageable, but it would give an advantage over people that post "only" 3 pics.
    Atm i'm limiting it to 3 pics, no collage.
    Maybe i'll do a pool about it, but not while this one is running.

    I'm facing the fact that I'm not I'm not going to finish my Oldblood on Carnosaur in time for this competition. As such here is my Skink Chief on Terradon instead:

    Very nice!
    I considered using him as Oxyotl myself at some point - even if he is not, I personally think he qualifies

    Looks good, I like how well the ropes are done, and the basing is great as well

    I'm in love with how clean your paintjobs are.
    The basing looks very natural - well done sir.
    Do my eyes deceive me, or is the spear from one of Woogity's sculpts?

    Thank you so much, very high praise :)

    That is an excellent spot! It is indeed the spearhead from the Woogity cowboy. I used the sword arm on the cowboy himself and had the spear left over. I thought it made this lil guy look more imposing and dangerous than just using one of the ripperdactyl rider spears.
