Converted Kroxigor to go with my Lizardmen Team

After much consideration I resigned myself to the fact that both the current and older range of Kroxigors do not have the right 'body pose' to convert into a cool looking BB player. So I have messed around with the existing BB Krox!!

Nope, the Blood Bowl Kroxigor. It is not a great figure and I hate the silly 'bone-helmet' but it has a good basic pose for a BB player. I looked on the GW site and couldn't find him, only after running a search for Koxigor linked to Blood bowl did I find one. Maybe they are planning on withdrawing this model...?

Nahh, they always have that on the site. Some models are on the BB of the US online store, but not on the UK one.

A first edition Kroxigor head. It fits on pretty seamlessly and I prefer it as it is slightly larger than the most recent version.
I hope he does ok in gameplay, I'm going to buy him for my team in the next league meeting we have, all I need is another 50k and then he's mine!! :D

Hehe, ok, thanks (I think). :)

The red is black undercoat - Vallejo Game colour 'Hot Orange' - Citadel Blood Red.

Is this saying that my team is strange or just Kadu-c ? :D

I like the orange! Great looking Krox. The helmet is well done.

Nope, I got two Krox heads with skulls on them. I really didn't like that idea as it is basically wearing your relations bones for protection?!?!?! :o

Still, I think he has turned out ok, we will see how good he is when he takes to the pitch...

Sorry mate, not sure what that is really. (and I'm hoping it is not a naked team - flashing? :o :o :o )
