This was a project I painted up for my local Friendly Local Gaming Store. I forget the name of this specific model as I don't believe that Games Workshop sells it anymore.
Mazdamundi (AoS): Well this was quite a project: I estimate it was a week or two building, two or three weeks painting, and another week for the base. But Its probably the project I'm the most proud of so far. Even though he is dead in the lore of AoS, he lives on in my heart and my lizardmen army as the centerpiece model. "Mazdamundi, Lord of the Solor-City is the oldest and most powerful of the living Slann Mage-Priests and the current ruler of Hexoatl, the City of the Sun" He has a barrel of grubs ready to be consumed from his throne.

I would guess that this step took me at least 8 hours of active time working on it. The end result of all those "teeth". I decided to run the Sandworm as a Land Raider, as it was similar-ish in size. Having the Sandworm breaking through the surface of the ground was important to me, to illustrate that the whole worm is much larger than the part breaching through the table. Since it was to be a Landraider I added some of my Fremen Troops to represent the guns that would be on the Land Raider. And added hooks/poles that they us...
