    I have a bit of a challenge...
    I was given a Lord Kroak model years ago as a gift. I haven't done any painting or modelling in a long time, and have just started getting back into this year. So I decided that maybe it was time to give the skeletal Mage a go, and started assembling and painting him. However, I was running into a issue fitting his banner on the throne, so I started looking at other models to see if I was missing something. Sure enough, I'm missing the little T-shaped piece that attaches to the top of the throne and then runs up the back of the banner.

    Any suggestions on what to do? Or do any of you have (for whatever strange reason) an extra one of those kicking around? I've never used Green Stuff to model new pieces, which means I either have to learn that, or find some other way of re-creating that piece.

    Thanks for any help you can offer!

    I had the same prblem with my first Slann,
    I found I had to make it out of green stuff...
    Not the hardest part to replace...
    You might want to pin the glyph banner thing
    if your tab has broked off like mine had.

    if you have a carnosaur kit you can either use the carnosaur's banner or the skinks banner...i think either one works pretty nicely

    Thank you both - I'll look for bits that will work, but otherwise I might take the plunge to try my hand at making a new piece.

    I would just green stuff it to the extisting piece, get it roughly the right shape, then let it dry and file it down so it has some nice square edges, and cut in the cliot for the top banner and maybe carve in a gliph in the front like the origional part had.
