I no longer own one of these screens, but someone was kind enough to supply a picture on the interwebs.

This, of course, is an illustration from the "original" Advanced Dungeons and Dragons Dungeon Masters Screen. Remind me, this was a Trampier illustration, yes? If so, more evidence of Tramp's genius.

If you squint really hard, you will see the darkened image of a lizardman, holding a polearm, standing in the foreground, as the dragon breathes fire just behind him.

A couple of days ago, I mentioned the outstanding Lizardmen sculpts distributed by Otherworld Miniatures. The only thing better than those sculpts would be more lizardmen sculpts.

Here is one miniatures pose that I would like to see produced, which I would buy in a heart-beat: the original Dungeons and Dragons lizardman logo. This fellow predates even "the game wizards" logo.

The above lizardman appears on the inside front panel of the Dungeons and Dragons Greyhawk supplement. The other lizardman image that is forever burned in my brain is the Monster Manual version, below.

One of the two already-produced Otherworld Miniatures lizardmen appears to be the mirror-image of this illustration, except in a standing rather than crouching position. It would be great to have this left-handed Lizardman mini, in a similar pose, to add to the collection!

Otherworld Miniatures is fast becoming the old-school destination-of-choice for good quality retro-look minis. I finally received my Otherworld pig-faced orc miniatures a couple of months ago, and was impressed by the genuine old-school look, and attention to detail.

Another case in point are these two lizardmen sculpts, which harken back to those early lizardman images, burned in my brain from rule-sets and adventures long past.

The only thing better than these lizardmen scupts: more lizardman scupts! I'd love to see a half-dozen or more of these lizardmen, along with a lizardman leader (perhaps enough to run Module N1, Against The Cult of the Reptile God?).
