Here's a slightly converted Lancer lizardman who's going to be acting as a dragonewt in some forthcoming Big Rubble skirmish games. I originally gave him a green-stuff beak and tail ending so that he could be a Shén in Tekumel. But he never made it to the painting table, and so he's now a beaked (second-stage) dragonewt for Glorantha.
The photos aren't great; I think there's something wrong with my phone camera. But I'm quite pleased with how he looks in real life.
A nice thing about painting dragonewts is that no metallics need be involved; the creatures are supposed to rely on bone, stone and glass for their weapons and armour.
The other nice thing about dragonewts is that they aren't supposed to look terribly similar to each other - so there's free rein for a wide variety of model types and colour schemes as the warband grows.
2nd edition????
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely! The inaugural skirmish will probably be played with Song of Blades and Heroes, though, for speed and familiarity.
