Help Gamezone Cold-One for Raptor riders

[Scorbol]

Hello everyone, I've been looking at the Gamezone range for an Imperial army and I stumbled upon their Cold Ones in the dark elves section.

I think they look very nice and I wonder if anyone has tried to put some mighty lizards on them. I've been looking on the forum and the question has been asked but I've never seen a final result so far.

Any help about that woud be appreciated

Thanks !

I have one, not finished yet but the saurus cold one riders do fit, be warned the castings do take a bit of cleaning and filing to get a nice assembly fit.

Could you post a picture of it ? even if it's WIP ? I'm very curious to see how it looks

Hey, thank you for that ! It looks pretty good mate !

Did you had to work on the "sadle" either on the mount or the rider ? It seems to fit quite well doesnt it ?

I'm aware of the gaps in gamezone models, but it indeed seems quite big looking at the GS there !

So you ordered only the spares for the raptor, it's quite cheap like so I guess ?

Are they metal or resin?

I you cut the saddle of the mount and file the saurus will fit perfectly, I ordered with the dark elf rider so I could use him for a far gone project.

All right that's pretty good, thank you for the pics and the tips

Sorry to necro, but since GZ sells parts individually, how would just a headswap look? (GZ raptor head on a GW cold one)

Only found one other example so far; on this thread, done by @kg1121

Found a painted one! by Nurgleonbass, over at Warhammer Forum



Model is his saurus scar-veteran on cold one



And here is the whole unit!



He has a truly magnificent lizardmen army to go with it.

That looks really nice, super aggressive carnivore look.
