Well, a long time ago I got hold of the Mumak kit but wanted something a bit original, a bit different... and so this was born...

I sawed the head and tail off an old Carnegie dinosaur, stuck a metal rod through the Mumak body, drilled holes into the pieces of dinosaur and attached them via the metal rod... and then used an entire packet of green stuff sculpting around them. Now it is undercoated I think it looks pretty good... :-D

Well, admit it, dinosaurs are cooler than elephants, right?

Just got to brush a decade of dust off it and paint it now...!

Omg hahahaa I've often looked at Schleich dinosaurs and dragons and wanted to convert them in or use a funny looking elephant.

I love it. Great work

For half a second I thought you were doing something with the trunk; then I realised haha - this should be very interesting to follow!

Going to need longer reins ;)

Thanks for the kind words all! I will keep this updated as I go along.

Nope. Mahud on Ceratosaurus. The "impale" rule never worked better... although I might tweak the profiles a bit for home games to make them a bit meaner... maybe something more like the Warg Marauders (sadly I am not even joking...).

I also intend to use a T. rex as the Balrog, and other dinosaurs as stand-ins for the original (pre-Smaug) Dragon and Cave Drake...

The Raptors use the rules for Giant Spiders...

I just really like dinosaurs... :rofl:
