    I was thinking of making some custom figurines of various lizards, mainly for fun, but I'd want them to be of a similar size to the actual models. Problem is, I don't have any actual models. Does anyone have any measurements for;

    Saurus Knights, Cold Ones (Lizardmen and Dark Elf), Saurus Warriors, Chameleon Skinks, Kroxigors Salamanders and Ripperdactyls?

    Just their height, length and width would be ideal.

    List made.
    Check it twice.
    Go on gamesworkship.com and check the base sizes in the descriptions.
    Size them to fit the base listed.

    I'm not putting them on bases though so that doesn't help.

    Still could do with some measurements if anyone has one of these models, a ruler and a few minutes to spare.

    Thank you for your pictures, but they're sadly not as helpful as I'd like. Ideally I'd just prefer metric measurements of the height, length and width. It's just simpler and more effective.

    That actually might be tricky, because many of the models have different poses and protruding elements such as skink blowpipes, that vastly change the measurements if would like to simply draw a bounding box around them. I literally asked myself when having two assembled skinks and a measurement tape on my hands how to measure those figures properly oO

    I see what you mean but the difference between two models can't be that huge, can it? If one skink is, for example, 10cm tall and one's 13cm, an average of 10-15 is good enough for me really. I don't necessarily need exact to the dot measurements for every model ever.

    As for extra accompaniments like blowpipes, I'm not so concerned with that, I just mainly care for the base models themselves. So pretty much I just want the head to feet measurement, the shoulder to shoulder measurement and the head to tail (or chest to tail for bipeds) measurements, as demonstrated in these two Tehenhauin pics I nabbed off google.
