7th Ed. Skink sprue

[strewart]

Hi guys. I am considering a conversion, and wanted to know how the skinks come. I know they aren't completely multi part, but would anyone have a picture of the sprue, or pic of assembly instructions? Or just a description of them if nothing else.

Basically I want to know how they look compared to the stegadon ones, which come completely assembled aside from the arms.

Cheers for any info.

you have a whole lots of arms to glue on, blowpipes, javelins, few bare arms for shields..then shields are separate as well

So basically the entire body is one piece aside from the arms like the stegadon ones? I was hoping for a few more pieces to make converting easier, but I guess I will have to see if I can make do.

Thanks for the info.

yep, solid body with lots of arm options

wee little buggers

Cool, thanks for that. Bottom middle one would suit well, but since they are basically the same design as the steg ones I already have, might as well use them instead.

My idea is that the priest on the engine of the gods is going to be sacrificing a skink for magic, maybe putting him on a small stone or just throwing him down on a stone. So the legs need to be bent right back so he can be leaning right back with the priest supporting him with one arm and holding a knife over him with the other. Should look cool I reckon.

So what colour blood do skinks have, for when I start painting it? I am very excited about the conversion.

 

[hellbreaker]

they probably have red blood, what colour is lizard blood? red. so, I don't think it's orc blood right.

No way if your are going for a skink cheif sacrificing someone you have to have a scaven. They hate the little rat guys and it would help rouse the wrath of sotec.

 

[fer]

ya, I would have it sacrificing a skaven, or a nubile empire woman

or a deamonette!

lizardmen don't sacrifice their own kind... only the bodies of their enemy's
