This is my attempt at the legendary Kroq-Gar riding the mightiest of Carnosaurs: Grymloq! Kroq-Gar, known as the Last Defender of Xhotl is an ancient Saurus Oldblood, the last of the remaining Saurus warriors from the now ruined temple-city of Xhotl. The spawning that brought Kroq-Gar into the world produced a handful of other Saurus, each marked for greatness. In the instinctive ways of battle-cunning these warriors were unsurpassed by any of their kind, and each possessed an innate dominion over the native beasts of the jungle. Kroq-Gar’s spawning coincided with the rearing of a brood of mighty Carnosaurs, and he claimed the largest and most ferocious as his own. Following the Great Catastrophe, it was none other than the great Lord Mazdamundi, High Slann Mage-Priest of Hexoatl, that summoned Kroq-Gar to his temple-city, choosing him to lead the great Saurus armies that remained. Mazdamundi gifted Kroq-Gar with the ancient artefact known as the Hand of Gods, with which he could sear the flesh from his enemies’ bones. Since that day, Mazdamundi has assigned Kroq-Gar the sacred task of exterminating those creatures not part of the Old Ones’ Great Plan. Over his long existence, Kroq-Gar has fought many wars — leading the armies of Hexoatl, or joining other hosts to aid them in battle. There is no continent upon which Kroq-Gar and Grymloq have not fought, but for the last defenders of Xhotl, the battle is not yet over. Revered Spear of Tlanxla: This weapon was said to have been wielded by the warlike Old One deity Tlanxla as he rode his sky chariot into battle. It hums with ancient energy, and those struck by it are overcome by doom-laden visions that sap their will to fight. Hand of Gods: Kroq-Gar can create a searing ball of light in the palm of his hand, which can then be directed at his enemies.
Looks fantastic! Brilliant job! I've also realised that, given the Carnosaurs name, I think I have your next conversion @NIGHTBRINGER - Kroq-Gar riding...
Just finished my Kroq-Gar! Mine was given to me by a friend after sitting unused in a giant box of other minis for years and so it was missing several pieces and I had to improvise to restore it.
Looking good! I love how you seamlessly blended old and new on this model. Great work on the base too!
I so hate that lime green paint though. It was such a pain to get anything resembling even color with it... I was going for "light shining between the trees" - because bright red didn't feel right to me for a predator. Notice, that if you removed the rider and all the bling, the carnosaur would be more or less camouflaged.
