OK, that should be "arms"
I just bought a Rackham Dragon on eBay, the smaller one without fore limbs. (In my world, that makes him a wyvern, technically). He's called the Dragon of Lanever, here's one from the CMON gallery (not mine):

I want to add some forelegs, and turn him into a dragon, but from where?
I'd prefer 3 forward toes/fingers, and one opposing thumb, attached to a largish, thin reptilian arm.
And that's me dreaming!
OK, can you guys offer any advice, mini's you know/own, have seen that would suit this task.
The arms have to be about 2 inches long, and clear of attachments to body, leg etc.
Note I am not asking for the arms themselves (that would be nice though), just advice on what mini would suit the project. The mini whould obviously need to be available in stock, and not a stupidly expensive mini in it's own right.
Anything up to about $50 is OK, but obviously the cheaper the better!
Any ideas/suggestions welcome, except telling me to buy the Titan Dragon of Aarklash instead!

Thanks!

multiposting in several sub forums? I do believe you already have an active thread about this in the painting & conversion section... That you posted about a week ago with the exact same starting post.

Not really. Just increases your chances of missing out answers since you now need to co-ordinate between several different posts. I reckon you're better off just sculpting what you want. Or paying someone to do it for you. Anything else, you'd probably wind up tweaking the scale - mind, this isn't a bad thing, a bit of oddness can be quite eye-catching.

Well, running into the bank and screaming that you want money is a certain way to increase your chances to cut ahead in line as well but it is still not socially acceptable and it might make the people around you a bit upset and irritated.

And when I see the exact same topic and post in several different subcategories I immediately disregard it as spam, gets irritated and ignores it. I'm pretty sure I'm not alone there and with people having that reaction you are actually lowering your chances of getting the answer you want. Most people on here that possess the appropriate know-how and bothers to post are browsing all the categories and will see your thread eventually, if you're not getting a satisfactory answer, then it just may be so that the active members aren't able to give you one.

But, having that said, if you are able to consider commissioning the sculpting of two arms this will raise your chance of getting both the exact kind of arms you're after and more replies since there are a lot of people on here trying to make a living out of things like that. it will be a lot more expensive than getting some bits that fit but it will be easier and they will be guaranteed to fit the model if you consider the right artists.
