    I'm very Happy that I find this post. Thanks a lot for the great advices.

    For the astrolith bearer I'll try a Aztec Coin from a 3D printer. (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2447167).
    Asked a friend to print it.

    I'll post a picture when I build him.

    Hey there is actually an astrolith bearer banner thing specifically designed on Thingiverse: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3389099

    If you have access to a 3D printer, there are loads of files that can aid in the maximization for the start collecting box. Here's a thread being maintained here for ideas:http://www.lustria-online.com/threads/articles-to-print-in-3d-lizardmen-seraphon.22394/

    Do you need to use modelling dedicated putty under the green stuff or could a cheap ass like me get away with bluetac or something and then greenstuff on the outside.

    Bluetac will work but it will remain soft but once your greenstuff sets it should be fine.

    I used some rigid wire mesh from the DIY store rather than putty for the underlying structure and it worked charms - you can shape it quite well and then superglue it to the base and dino bits before applying the green stuff over it.

    Pro Tip: I have seen Julie Guthrie do this exact technique when sculpting dragon wings.

    It is what the pros do.
