I have a problem

I like Mr Lemmey's Raptors but prefer Mr Powys  riders

Who do I vote for?
If I were creating Pendraken I wouldn't mess about with Romans and  Mongols  I would have started with Centurions , eight o'clock, Day One!

Raptors at dawn!  I presume you have organised seconds?
I shall however fling my hat, or should that be micro rapto into the ring.
I am going to go for.......
I like the leopard Gecko look of ML However  I  really do like the green and red of ODP's, however the yellow for me is a little too bright.
I shall have to have a think.... :-\

O Dinas riders have the quintessential dark elf look, but Lemmey's have a power ranger meets ring wraith look about them which is kind've cool.

It's Lemmey for me!

The problem for me is that it's horses for courses - or raptors for rourses. Lemmey's raptors look more "natural", but I like ODP's caparisoned look. Lemmeys riders, with the morse code pennants remind me of the sand people in Star Wars - with the white eyes on the black background, but ODPs are more natural. Lemmeys are barbaric and primitive; ODP's have a chivalric flavour.

Choices, choices.  :-\

The ones from lemmey for me, really like the more natural colours for the raptors.

Jc

  This is a  hard call, lemmey's raptors natural reptillian colouring  and old school like dark elves ,or odp's bold (shades at the ready)bright raptors and human like elves. pity you can't swap riders. On raptors alone odp's.

I can see me ordering and painting some more Raptors, then sending them to ODP with unpainted riders at this rate!  O:-) O:-) O:-) =O =O
