An alternative to the Dragon

[narayannis2]

Hello my friends.

If, like me, you think that the Dragon that was offered in the KS of the game was horrible ( I recently saw painted photos of it from a preview of the Book of Set, and I shrugged), you probably are out searching for a good alternative. Well, I found one, and I'd like to share it with you. It's the Behemoth figure from Safari LTD. It's cheap, pre-painted, and most of all, IT LOOKS LIKE A DRAGON. 

Here are 2 images of this magnificent beast.

     

 

And here are some photos together with Conan, for size comparison.

 

    

 

Don't you think it's a much better choice?

 

Of course you'll need the tile for the big fella. I've created it using the original as a guide. You'll find them attached to this message.

 

Cheers

nice!

What about this big bad boy?

 

[narayannis2]

That's great, too! But isn't it a bit too large? It might cause space issues...

And it needs a few horns!  :)

@Arthadan, I think that the Blacktooth Terror looks a bit too much like a T. Rex for me.

 

But like @narayannis2, I don't really like the Dragon by Monolith. I will look for a proxy, too... The Behemoth as a nice look.

According to the dragon description in Red Nails, it should have a barrel-like body, four short legs, a long neck and an alligator mouth (but bigger). I've been looking for a proxy and haven't found a good one either.

I must confess I haven't read the Red Nails yet.

No big deal, it's just the best Conan story ever ...

[Not Quite Dead]

Well, I've read the first two books of the Bragelonne edition. I'll borrow the third one as soon as I can, so I'm looking forward to read that story.

Another proxy:

 

 

I think he looks the part, save for his short neck. He's from Antediluvian Miniatures, and they have many more.

Gee, I wish I would have thought of that

 

 

[narayannis2]

Oh, dear... I hadn't seen your post (I wish I had, because I was searching for a long time for a substitute).

Apologies! I'll be more careful next time.

 

Cheers

Here’s one I found on Thingiverse. I printed a bent neck version so the dragon is looking down. I also printed it at 120% to make it look slight more menacing. I was going to use a guardian drake or a basilisk mini until I found this.
