    Hello all,

    Just thought I would share my first painted units. The OOP Temple guard just need their shields to arrive before I can finish them off :)

    I'm not great at painting but I'm pleased with them :)

    I have to be honest, I find the traditional colors of any armies to be kinda boring, however, when it's done throughout the entire army it actually looks great :D

    Lovely army you've painted so far. Really liking the different colored scales - inspired me to do the same with cameleon skinks =)

    Very nice, are you giving the models a colour wash?

    I think they may benefit from a sepia wash but water it down from the stock pot, the scales look a little flat.

    Thank you very much for the tip. I'll give it a try on a skink and Saurus today and see how it turns out.

    Cheers :)

    Nice painting job. That's a good looking group of characters that you've created. The blue skin tone is complimented nicely by your use of the oranges, greens, yellows and reds

    For the Stegadon I will go for reds :) the Skinks will be blue and orange to keep then in synch. The engine on the stegadon will be mainly gold but it will have blue painted symbols on it :)

    Nice one. I like to keep the bulk of the actual lizards to one colour scheme (chamo skinks exception) but the large beasts I like to have a variety of colours.

    That is my plan as well. I'm either going to paint the actual lizards (skinks, krox, saurus, temple guard) exactly the same or at least in the same colour palette but having the krox the darkest, the saurus/temple a mid tone and the skinks the lightest.

    The big beasties will be completely different, anything goes.
