    sixbras painting log

    Hi,

    I've lurking on this forum from a while and I finally decide to go for my new army in Ninth Age, and it will be Saurus Ancient.
    I collect since the beginning of the year used saurus from different sources, ebay, and "le bon coin" a French kind of "Graig List".
    I've put all of this stuff in glanzer bath for a month, and i start my unpainting job.

    Next step : rebuild the saurus, regluing missing arm/weapon/shield that falling in the glanzer bath, and count them.

    I will have to paint 180 saurus, some skinks, and 2 palanquins (slaan and skink) for my list.

    I plan to add at least one or two saurus with helmet in each unit. I will need a lot of saurus banner to get feathers....

    Love it :wideyed:

    Tempted to go buy two more saurus on foot and copy this idea :greedy:

    Loving your use of materials to create both these stela-bases and the ongoing temple-looking project! Can't wait to see it painted :artist:

    I have finish to paint the temple, no i will add some vegetation, vine, roots on it.
    I start also to paint some batch of saurus, using contrast paint. I would like to paint some warpaints on the saurus face or shield, but i can't find a good exemple that inspire me. If anybody have sources, let me know.

    Goodness me, what a big task you have in front of you, but it already looks like you’re tackling it with aplomb. I love seeing that big pile of models stripped of paint, clean and ready to go again. Really cool looking color scheme and bases.
