I have asked.
She says that there was never any particular toy she really wanted, or felt she was missing out by not having....I think once she was aware of horses, everything else became secondary. =) =) =) =) =)


Girls  =)  They are nice and squidgy though   :D

Right team.....
Question for you.....'Cos I cannot find the thread 'wot it was in !!'

I've got to do a camel for the 'musician'/nacarra drummer for these chaps.
Someone asked about having a completely 'nude' camel, that I said I'd convert at the same time.....as that one will be pretty quick to do.

Now.....The existing camels in the range are (I assume) Dromedaries......Please shout if I'm wrong here !!
So.....Question)......I'm assuming the nude camel required is a Dromedary ?....Yes ?

The mongol one has got to be a Bactrian....That I'm happy about.....Though it means 'chopping it about' a lot more...and making the legs shorter.

All for now.
Cheers - Phil.

Hi Phil,

The nude camel was for me  :D

A dromedary would be cracking - that's what's in the extant ranges after all. Nude bactrian (and lama) would also be fine with me ;)
I'm only after them for Pleistocene proxies anyway, so historical verisimilitude is not essential for me!  :-B

Cheers mate!

Nude frogs? And nude buddhists? Thread definitely getting hinky :)

Why do you want me to make one out of Green Stuff, if you've already made some out of poxy Plasticine already ? 8-} 8-}
(I'm pretty sure I know what a historical verisillitune is....But I'll just go and make sure.) ;)

If I were creating Pendraken I wouldn't mess about with Romans and  Mongols  I would have started with Centurions , eight o'clock, Day One!
