    Has anyone successfully painted Reptiladon Spine or Omek's Tears starhosts?

    I love the schemes on paper but have failed to get anything looking good on a few test minis.

    Would love to see some examples or get some tips from anyone who can help.

    OK. Had another run and a bit happier. Feedback?

    There that’s better. Now I can see it.

    It is better than I can paint I think. Are you going to attempt the squared-off blocky stripe?

    Photography-wise I would ruthlessly crop this. (Top and bottom. Less fingers and mug.)

    Easy enough to do:

    There’s not one less pixel worth of Skink, but there’s less pixels of image file.

    Thanks! Yeah, I'll add markings and not finished basing.
    When I start doing batches they should be a bit neater, but also want to work at speeding up the process a bit.

    Looking good! :)

    If you want to match the Reptiladon's Spine scheme you might need to do the back scales a darker more greenish blue
