CyLon got it, if you combine guesses: Cats and Dragons

And there are cats. And there are dragons. Not in equal measure, however. It's cat-heavy! But I have a little bit of work left, so we'll have to wait a couple of days before I post the picture...

Will there be any relevance to the new anime movie which is released next month ?  TBQH I didn't know about the movie until I started your hangman but once I got going things started to fit into place .  I look forward, as always , to seeing your great stuff.

If  there's a tiger, maybe we'll hear from PL. :D 

Looking forward, as always, to seeing what you come up with.

I am so un-hip that I didn't even see that release coming -- happy coincidence! In fact, this release will be a final-final Heroes for Hire themed wave. I hope to finish them late tonight.

Love your stuff, so looking forwards to it!

Still gotta get that Feral sticker, someday!

Ha yeah! I haven't forgotten! This is officially the last wave that draws from my existing design sheets, so I need to figure out the best way to make them available.

The Big Cats are straight-up Legos, no art about 'em. 

Tyrone King is a QC, he's got an interesting history.

Harmony Killdragon is the coolest one-hit wonder to come out of Deadly Hands of Kung-Fu. 

Chiantang is here, in his human and dragon forms. His Dragon form being a bit of reskin of a Terror Dog with a Subway Ghost tail added for good measure.

I needed a V2 of the Golden Tigers, post John Byrne redesign. This version is much more toyetic.

Lastly, Lionfang is here looking absolutely fabuous.

Thanks y'all!

I know the existence of some of these characters strains credulity -- but I looked back and it seems that I had already stated my intent to get around to them, complete with some reference images, if you're interested.

Now that I'm more or less done-done with H4H and MOKF, I'm giving myself permission to skip around themes moving forward. I have a lot planned, but not sure what will land next. Some play in the same arenas I've already visited, and there are at least a couple that I think no one will see coming. But hopefully a general (but slow) move away from extreme obscurity.

I'd be lion if I said this last round wasn't purr-fect! You should be filled with pride every time you look at them. Did you design some of those faces from scratch?

I will not be drawn into a potentially catastrophic distraction from what is (are?) some great customs . Beautiful :thumbsup:

I'm not a cat lover but that's a great theme .  

I'm not a cat lover & I know one way to make an irritating, meowing cat go 'woof' ?" 

Spoiler

This involves Kerosene & a lighted match .  

Spoiler

& a sense of humour

Ooooh, these are really clean and sharp looking. I especially like Tyrone and Harmony.

Is that the actual scale of the lego cats - or is there some photoshopping magic?

I should paws to note, all kittying aside, that only the GT, Lionfang and Chiantang's mask are originals. The rest are mere copycats, clawed from the depths of my heads bin.

Photoshopped only because I shoot them individually and composite them afterward. I didn't make a deliberate attempt to cheat the sizes, but I'm sure they're a bit imprecise. I did make the "Black Dragon" look bigger on purpose, but the cats are close to real size. I'll post a pic sometime soon to show actual size, in case you're scouring eBay or Bricklink for cats and want to know how they scale. 

Fun Fact: I used two panthers with Pavane in the MOKF sets, and there is still one more villain in another theme who rolls with cat companions...

Golden Tiger vs Actual Tiger for scale. Spoiler alert: Tiger wins.

Ahh, that's a pretty good size - I'll be filing that bit of information away to use at some point.

I'm now wandering what other lego animals might work.  Definitely the parrots
