Pterodactyl Riders. I've yet to have seen those since the Megabloks vs. Lego battles.

Can you explain this? I don't know what it is?

Silver, that's a good idea; I remember playing a guy who had a hero riding a pterodactyl. Pain in my butt for sure...

You get one of them 1x2 grilles and you cut the grilly bit out with a knife, and then you shove it in the hips of the minifig. Makes em taller.

I thought about whether or not to make a few more chariots for shits and giggles. But one neat thing I experimented with was putting a chariot-basket on top of the Scarab, a little walking turret. It would be complete with a repeating crossbow contraption as well.

The Hiimboredagain Raiders will be expanding their ranks over the next week or so. Earlier today I received one of two expected bricklink orders full of parts for a new unit for the barbarians. Please, revel in all their bovine delight!

Image

Image

The design pulls from many, many, many permutations I've seen across the internets for minotaurs. Much of the body follows saber-scorpion's lizardman; the legs are my own concoction for a knee joint. The arms are reminiscent of hardsuits I've seen here and there, and the head was inspired by some construction on the classic-castle forum. Anyway...more pictures.

Image

The Minotaur is a heavily armored 2" creation that combines speed, melee staying power, and a devastating Pike-charge attack.

Image

As of right now, I have three Minotaurs completely assembled; a fourth will be on his feet as soon as I can find missing pieces for the reverse knee (irony?).

Image

The Alpha Bull sports a wicked double-axe :twisted:
