What would be the stats for something like that? (other than cheese)

I don't think it's that amazing. I mean, fex heads on scytals? Nah, doesn't do it for me.

[toenail]

Yeah.....to me that kind of seems like either

a)What the person said in the auction(just for kicks)

or

b)They had lots of spare bitz and wanted to make $5.50

or

c)both

It jsut doesnt seem like a very well done or thought out conversion (I know it doesnt say it is supposed to be one). Neither does it seem like a particularly threataning enemy.....those things barely look like they could move, let alone leap. Other people might think it looks cool but for me.....meh.

[Tauranid]

My thoughts exacalacily.

[TheRipperfex]

a kinda neat idea.

I'm sure it looks really stupid up close though.

Either way it worked

Well the rippers are for fun, but this looks great!

done by the same guy, I like the idea of using the nazghoul mounts tail - I am not sure what wings he used, but I might just steal this idea
edit - put the right link in this time - also it looks to be the whole body of the mount with the arms and head of the tyrand, as well as the carpace towers added on as well

[Tauranid]

Yeah, I saw that one too. It's okay, but barely any detail on it. Not painting, the model itself.

[Overread]

I do see what you mean - and I think the towers on the back need some work - but I like the look, its more steamlined than a carni/tyrant with wings often looks - the thing is I think that a carni back woud be easier to model onto the back - its plastic - rather than a metal tyrant - hmm I think this model is going to be expensive for me

[Ordo Ouroboros]

I got that in my watch
