From MartinC - Death Star (62 pts)

So I've arrived at the Death Star, need to keep out of the way the creepy guy with the sore throat, looks like a jobsworth.

I've bought some things of questionable design with me,

I picked up these Atlanteans on the way. They are a bit Flash Gordon but thier steam powered crabs are tooled up with machine guns and a cannon

The crabs are from Empress (I think) and the 2 Altanteans are from a location unknown

These 2 Honourable Lead Boiler Suit company Velociraptors are not a questionable design and will give a wild pack of dinosaurs to support the lizardmen

This is definitely of questionable design. It is a Were-armadillo. Which blithering idiot designed a Were-armadillo

Reaper, thats who. Saw him at a show and had to buy him

He's a big chap as well, standing 40mm at the crouch.

So scores are

2x28mm inf = 10

3x little machines, probably 5 each = 15

2 x small dinosaurs, probable 5 each again = 10

1 x 40mm Were-armadillo = 7

Death Star location = 30

total = 72

It's That Man Again! A were-armadillo? Whatever next! Super work, but the location bonuses are only 20 points, so that's 62 points total!

From MartinC - Even More Lizardmen (312pts)

 So this is the last of my lizardmen from now (I've painted all the ones I have and time for change of direction). They have been a joy to paint.

First up another regiment of 16 skinks with spears. The whole army has a very Aztec feel and so most of the weapons in the army are not steel but bronze, stone or wooden

These guys have the standard green and yellow colour scheme with bightly coloured shields

Next another 13 skinks to complete a regiment. Same deal as the previous

Next up are 2 skinks on microtyrannosaurs. The skinks are converted from the Sundereded Studio figures and the dinosaurs from the Honourable Lead Boiler Suit Company (although they have now stopped selling them).

I say converted, I found figures that would fit on the back of the dinos and removed their loin cloths

Next up another species of lizard with red and orange crests.

These guys have tortoise shell shields and I really like them

Next up are 12 huge lizard men. These are 40mm figures and look exactly like Godzilla. I gave them a brown colour scheme with bronze shields and weapons. Using KoW these would be 4 regiments and are equivalent to Ogres or Trolls 

I have acquired a couple of Frostgrave Cobramen and these will join the army as heros and wizards

Finally the whole army so far. Almost all were painted during the challenge

These 4 weren't, the turtle wizard is from Mr Lees, the Albertosaurus with the Howdah is from the Honourable Lead Boiler Suit Co. and the orange Microtyrannosaur was prepainted by Mark Copplestone and bought via North Star, it's very cool.

Looking at the army there are some gaps with the number of figures not really matching the number of regiments. Within my group there is a legendary box of unpainted lizardmen from Warhammer V2. These have now been found and have fallen to me and I will paint them up later in the challenge when I get them.

So the scores on the doors

41 x 25mm infantry = 205

2 x 25mm cav = 20

12 x 40mm infantry = 84

3 standards = 3

total = 312pts.

Next up I think Sci Fi

Martin

Well, I hadn't even looked at this post when I made the joke about Martin "kicking up a skink". Fantastic work on these and it's great to see the army (so far) on parade. I'm sure we'll all look forward to seeing the WH V2 ones painted up later on in the Challenge.
