discussion Warhammer Kroq-Gar riding Grimloq

[HAWKERHUNTER]

Well I bet you never expected to see me in the fiqures forum. Let me explain.
Many moons ago, 27 + years to be precise, my son Chris wanted to get into gaming with Warhammer. We bought him the Britonians / Lizard Man starter set. Chris took on the Britonians and I was tasked with painting and building the Lizard men army. We both built up quite a considerable army but the complexity of the game soon put us off and Chris soon lost interest.

So everything got put away as I had hoped at some point we would resurect the interest. That was 27 years ago.
Anyway, just lately I have had the urge to complete some of the models that are gathering dust. I have come along way with my painting knowlegde as a result of joining SMF and feel its time to have another bash at some figure painting.

So first up is Kroq-Gar, an ancient Saurus Old blood riding Grimloq. the largest and most aggressive Carnosaur. This is a white metal figure. I will keep you posted with progress as we go.

Unique work for you Steve, I look forward to seeing what you do with the figures.

Some of those old warhammer metals are very collectible. Might be worth checking before you paint them. It’s a very active field these days and they could command a decent price…. Have fun whatever though, looks like he’d be a shoe in for speed paint or wash and drybrush….

Should be fun Joe. A change is as good as a rest and it shouldn't take too long.

Your right Tim, I saw one of these on an auction site with an asking price of £185. Not sure if the seller will ever get that. But I have a large Warhammer army of Lizardmen and this chap will be a key piece.
