    This is one of the aforementioned in-betweener projects I had in mind to throw out before the big Reworking Sub Models 4 video. Rest assured, that one is being worked on! If there's any other specific fantasy/sci-fi races you'd like to see me work on, lemme know below!

    Using a snake head in place of a lizard head is like the first trick I taught myself when I got into Hero Forge. The second character I ever made was a Lizardfolk and I hated the way the lizard head looked. Only issue I have with the snake head is you can't change its teeth.

    Hahahah, yeah I regret to say that this build was actually going to include a Croxigor as the 3rd - but I ran out of time and if I kept it going this build would cut into time I needed to spend on the Reworking project. In another world there'd have been a 3rd model, maybe even a 4th if I was going to make a Slann, but alas :(

    Wondering if you, Derf, ever mess around with the colours by changing all the shades of blue to the same shade of red or green? Its fun when making lizard people or kobolds because they just become another type of kobold. Or using it on blue leather to change teams clash royale style 😅
