Red Slisk drew back his lips in a viscous snarl. He could taste the scent of the U'man BigGun. But this time something was different. There was a female with Big Gun. Arise warriors! It is time to make the tresspassing U'mans pay!

The lizardmen are GW skinks with Kroot rifle arms.
I will be using these gents to defend a variety of jungle ruin sites

Enjoy

Very cool idea! I love the way these look.

Very cool! I was just looking at Bronze Age's sci-fi line and your lizardmen would be great adversaries.

Those are bitchin' ! Know what ah'm doin' with my spare skinks, now ! thumbs up

Black Cavalier28 Dec 2009 11:58 p.m. PST

Great! I've already got the exact same parts (skinks & kroot rifle arms) to do the same thing.

I'm curious, how easy where the arms to put on since they were from different models? Did you have to pin them, or fill the joins?

Thanks

Really nice work there.

Black Cavalier: The kroot arms go on pretty easy as I've done a couple of these.

Amalric29 Dec 2009 12:08 p.m. PST

Chuck, this was not my idea but one that has been around for a while.

Black Cavalier, as Skrapwelder points out, it is very easy. The arms go on as easily as they would go on a kroot. It required no pinning or gap filling.

Thanks all for the kind words.

That first picture looks more like he's holding a "potato masher" grenade.

Good stuff though.
