OK, so these are not exactly the “big moment” I was hoping to have for my 100th D&D Monster Manual post, but these are the models I got painted in January that fit the bill, and so it is very much a cas of it is what it is.
This pair of chicken precursors were found in a tub of figures when Marouda and I were searching for a specific robot-type model (that we still haven’t found) for a whole different sort of project. I spotted this pair, in their pre-primed “glory” and decided that the pair of them would probably paint up pretty quickly, and even if I have no specific use for them right now – painted is always better than not painted. So that’s what happened shortly afterward.
As with the last post’s model, these two count as fodder for Dave Stone’s Paint What You Got Challenge 25-26,


Excellent pair of Raptors mate, I guess they could turn up in all sorts of gaming so a useful pair of models to have.

Cheers Dave. I figure I’ll throw them in a D&D-oriented figure case and forget they exist unil/if I ever have need for a pair of raptors.

Very nice! 🙂 I like the subtle colour variation on their upper surfaces!

Thanks John. I usually like to add a bit of variation to “natural” creatures and animals – and also monsters when they’re “animal-coded”. 🙂

Very nice work on these, mate. They look very lifelike and as Dave already said, I can see these being one of those “I’m glad I painted these up” type of miniatures down the road.

Thanks mate. Cheap models + quick paintjob (4 years after purchase(!)) gives a couple of potentially useful “back pocket” figures.
