Drake/Small Dragon Miniatures to "Count As" Great Eagles

#1 Post by Dai »

Hello All

Im planning of starting a dragon themed High Elf army & looking for suitable miniatures to represent Great Eagles

Any ideas/links/suitable miniatures would be most appreciated

Cheers

I compiled a list about a year ago (so a little out of date).

The reaper young ice dragon is about 2 inches tall and 3 inches long. I assume the others are a similar size. On the store page for the mini, scroll down to the boneyard pictures and they have the different parts next to a measuring tape.
I own the GW drakes and they're a bit small, but not so small that people will complain. I'd take a photo, but they're in a box at my parents' place...

In your opinion would the young dragons make a suitable replacement for the great eagles??

Yes, I think they would. If you plan on going to events and tournaments though, check that they allow non GW models. Most do, but GW stores and GW-run events don't.

Check out my Plog here on the Forum (scroll down to the 10th post). The Plog stalled a bit but I'm planning on resuming it again.

Maybe some of my Ideas will suit you.

The link is in my sig (There be Dragons Plog)
