FL7 Pet Dinosaurs.  They're nice little sculpts, although could do with remoulding soon.

Before I started keeping chickens I was quite unaware of just how vicious and predatory they behave, they go absolutely crazy when they draw blood and used to kill wood pigeons that were unfortunate enough to get caught trying to nick their feed! If chucks were bigger they would give anyone reason to be afraid...!

I agree Win ! :)

They're not particularly nice creatures at all. :o
You're not wrong about spilled blood. Never had any of ours actually injure a flying rat....But if one the 'brood' gets some sort of cut....It gets 'hen-pecked' to the point it has to be isolated before it gets killed by the others.

Vicious, messy, wasteful, rat encouraging peasants ! ;) ;D
And they'll eat just about anything.......Put me off eating eggs sometimes, when I see what's gone down their necks.....(Shudder !!) ;)

geed

Thanks    :)

@Vulpine : No ! i like your contribution  :P ! It's something different ! When i just glued some minis on bases and painted it, you worked on a real composition which tell a story. I think judges will also take this in count when they will determine a winner.

For those who are interested by Tribal lizardmen, this is the list of minis i bought (but i didn't use everything) :

  • Lizardmen Army Pack
  • FTL2
  • FTL6
  • FTL7
  • FTL10
  • FTL12
  • FTL15
  • FTL16
  • AC11

@Win : i always said that chicken is the most dangerous creatures after the alien  X_X
Nesquig ? Waagh else !

Every time I think I've seen the winner someone comes up with something even better. Good luck, judges!  :)

Hold the presses! A whole 1866 Austrian army just appeared, fantastic! wow! :o  8)
I almost feel honour bound to either enter French or Prussians to oppose them!  :P

Well it is an Army contest so why not put the whole army up!

My goal was to have the Austrians and Prussians done by this coming weekend, but I really hate paint cavalry and it took me about 10 days to slog throught he Prussians. Working on the infantry command now and will start digging thoruh about 460 infantry shortly.  Then its on to 230 or so Saxons.
