orkwrangler's miniatures

[ManicMan]

I just wonder what a fruit has to do with zoats.... you eat them?

Wow! My space alligator horsey doesn't have one of those! (I just figured maybe they kept it on the inside, like certain reptiles. Not that I checked. "Sex a zoat day" sounds like a bad day at the intergalactic xeno zoo.)

Other examples don't have this artifact either.

• CCM Space Zoats
• CCM Fantasy Zoats
• SOLegends

I bought the mini in a GW store. It's on a two-slot cavalry base but has only one tab. The body has three points of contact with the tab so I don't think it's for structural support. Perhaps it's there to aid casting or maybe just a mould defect.

good stuff.

Not the best miniature I've painted but far from the worst. I spent a lot of time experimenting with new paints, sometimes to poor effect. At the stage where I recognise further fiddling will only make it worse, time to call it done.

That's a miniature I like, but it is a challenging one to paint. Nicely done! You have to experiment. That's the only way to grow. And at the end of the day? You can always give him a bath and do it again, but I don't think that will be necessary here. He looks good!
