    Ok I hate the current cold ones. The dark elf ones are alright but I find they are still way to small to have a big saurus on top. I was thinking of taking something like a lion or tiger and making it reptilian. Adding scales making the tail larger lizard head etc. But I'm having trouble finding a decent model to start with, I considered sculpting it from scratch but my skills are non existent. I also considered converting the dragon ogre lower bodies but I don't know how big they are. Any thoughts or recommendations would be appreciated

    I don't think that Dragon ogres would work simply due to shape. Try looking for dinosaur models. Probably find cheaper than gw ones to fit your role.

    I myself am currently working on a model using one of the gamezoneminiatures cold ones. Gorgeous model except for one problem....horrendous mold lines than leave large gaps and many hours of green stuffing scales. They are a perfect size for our large riders though.

    Those look great, they'd make an awesome character model.

    Really considering buying one.
