However he is well and truly squished up against that wall, hence my decision to use him as an objective marker. My green-stuff skills aren't good enough to do the cape swirls etc.Blaxklerichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06986635840718583767noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1308328551615343287.post-34587726276320264012016-03-14T13:08:50.138-07:002016-03-14T13:08:50.138-07:00Thanks Pulpcitizen.

Lizardmen were one of my favourite Warhammer armies but I became bloody furious with GW when they changed the army list and made all my bow armed Skinks obsolete by insisting they should be armed with blowpipes! I never forgave them!<br />I'm looking forward to seeing the rest of your WIP figures being finished, especially your Daughters of SHIVA.Vampifanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11318241813130102121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1308328551615343287.post-57151504530395039232016-03-13T15:14:01.764-07:002016-03-13T15:14:01.764-07:00Thanks Andy.
