Finland... the country next to Sweden? No! That's Norway! Finland is to the east! No! That's Russia!

I have a problem... I'm trying to make predator miniatures with the GW plastic/metal kits and with as little use of green stuff as possible.

Copplestone castings do really good predator models also.

This. Also check out Old Crow Models...they make some predator styled minis, and a cool feature is you can buy them in clear resin to simulate being cloaked.

If you dont want to buy the pre made soluntions then I suggest your get familiar with green stuff and sculpting. I'd probably base the model off of either a standard Space Marine or a Necron Pariah or maybe a mix of both.

Striking scorpion exarch.

I always jokingly call my brothers "that predator guy".

The difference between commitment and involvement is like eggs and ham; the ckicken was "involved", the pig was "comitted".

Hmm... The eldar or the kroot one might work pretty well since they both have rastas and such. The eldar just needs a more sinister and predatorish look and the kroot needs clothes so i'll have a go on both.

I saw someone do a cross between a striking scorpion - the dreads, gotta love the dreads and a Dire avenger for the shoulder mounted targetter - then he put into a crouching posture and it looked much like a predator.

v cool model, but I cant remember who it was.
