Doh! Had assumed the stegadons were mounted on a single Warmaster base not four of them... Think I'll have to leave them then, don't really want a proxy Exodite Titan.
I think I could probably get away with using terradons as varient winged dragons though, carefully scraping and filing away the riding skinks and replacing them with exodite riders similarly removed from their dragons (will take a while but I don't mind). The terradons look more interesting scults than the official winged dragon, if anyone heres got both whats the size difference between the two? Could I use 1-3 terradons on a Warmaster sized base to count as a unit of Shining Spears and then use the proper winged dragon models to make the warhost's exarch?
How big is the Warmaster T-rex? Was thinking of using it as a Wraithlord along with some King Dragons. Having looked at the Eldar army list properly I then also realised that if I wanted to include Wraithlords then I'd need Wraithguard too so after thinking about it for a while I decided to use Warmaster Salamanders. I figure they can be dragon type creatures that spit a fiery acid at their enemies, their bodies being very tough and heat resistant hence decent armour save.
The other idea I'm considering is to buy a warmaster dark elf chariot, have it pulled by two exodite dragon riders (without the riders) and mount a great big cannon on the back in the chariot. Could count it as a Support Weapon...

I have small detachments of all the Exodites ... they are big but in scale ... the T-Rex and Horned One are about the size of a Land Raider, and "dwarf" a Rhino. The Terradon is about the size of an E40K T-bolt. And it will be no easy task cutting the Exodites off most of their mounts. And most parts are $2-3 USDs. IMO ... use them as is ... this could be a time consuming and expensive project ... But you got to do what you got to do ...

I felt I left you hanging, then I remembered that Irregular Minatures makes 6mm Lizardmen, Dinos, everything ! I just checked out the site again. If you are looking for 6mm conversion fodder ... I'd look there.
