    GW I used gulliman blue for the scales and Baharroth blue for some highlights but the main body was done with scale color caribean blue!

    Such a beautifully painted howdah :happy:

    Of the three skinks you painted, I liked them in the order you posted them.

    1) The blue skink looked the best to me, nice classic look with a beautiful jade weapon

    2) The second is probably the most visually interesting with the nice green body and red eye

    3) Third one was the darkest, still looked good if you were going for a "grimdark" skink, but when put up against the vibrant colors of the first two it doesn't seem quite as awesome.


    In any case an entire army painted as any one of these three would look amazing simply because @Xlanax_lot was the one who was painting them :artist:

    Hi Guys!

    Sorry I have been quiet for a long time, however I have been working on a couple of things that I believe you are going to like.

    One of them is a custom Seraphon / Lizardmen Hero Sculpt that I will be printing and casting, so super excited for that.

    Soon I will be posting more updates, but In the mean time here is a small teaser video:

    Thanks ! The textures will become a lot more obvious once the final render is ready! This is just the outline

    Super happy to hear it! It shouldn't be long now! Probably by the end of the week I will have better renders!

    Initially I was going to just print if for myself as a custom hero, but some friends are asking me for a copy all-ready, so if enough people want it .... sure! I can figure out a way to do a batch of them for the people that like it! It would be great!

    Ok Guys,

    As Promised here is a final render of the Model!

    46C28696-D6DA-4B24-B603-9F94156BAA3F.jpeg

    I really like how it turned out and I hope you also like it! All comments and recommendations are welcome! So please let me know what you think!

    Also, since I started posting updates on this guy, I have received some requests to do copies of him, so I will try to do a one time batch (it would be pretty cool to have you guys play with my mini haha).

    The most expensive part of this process is the master print for casting, therefore wether I can make the copies or not and the pricing of the mini will depend entirely on the amount of copies printed!

    If you are interested in a copy please share this post and send me a Private Message with:

    - email
    - address
    - name
    - number of copies you want

    You can send it to here to xlanax.lot@gmail.com or in a PM on Lustria Online.

    Cheers and thanks for your support!

    He looks pretty awesome!
    One point I noticed:

    This part looks a tad weird IMO, the way the scales on the neck just end rather abruptly.

    I’m thinking that’s a side protrusion sticking out from his lower jaw, while the whole throat area of the neck has the smoother surface of smaller scales.

    Huh. Yeah, might be a perspective thing.
    Now I am not sure anymore.

    Would this still be the case if you print him with a 3D printer?
