    I was lucky enough to find this terrain piece on Ebay, after which the company sent me a flier with my purchase to tell me their website: http://www.scotiagrendel.com/

    Anyway, as far as I'm concerned this is the perfect lizardmen terrain piece hands down:




    The Good:
    Its a great piece in appearance, a sacrificial pit full of snakes, it even has a "trap door" on the edge of the pit (in a folded down position, not in pics) with a place to tie up a prisoner even.
    The piece is made of a solid chunk automotive grade resin, you can mainly tell from the god awful smell coming off it.

    The Bad:
    The snakes in the pit? They are anorexic, HUGE heads and long, super thin bodies.
    Flash, this model had the WORST amount of flash I have ever seen, one of the shields was completely covered by a flap of flash that had folded over onto it, and each one of those spikes/flames coming from the top of the ring had a large chunk going all the way to the bottom of the pit that I had to use a dremel tool to remove.

    Anyway, planning on painting this up with the desert theme I'm using for my lizzies and posting pics in here if anyone is interested.

    That does look like a very cool terrain piece. I'll be keen to see it painted up!

    Got a chance to work on this a bit the other day before a match (In which I was devastatingly defeated T_T )
    Here are some pics with the primary base coats, it still needs some touching up on them though. I also removed the skulls that were beside the steps as they looked too reptilian to me. It still needs ALOT of work though >.<
