    And the second color scheme for the skinks! Did it similar like I did on the first new unit. This time with grey and blue will wash with nulin oil after I've done the crests. I'm not really sure about the color yet... Thought of petrol or similar dark green.. Or dark purple to have something similar to the other unit...

    I wonder if I should try something special on them... Like white belly or face...

    @tom ndege

    Do you not prime your models before base coating?

    Yes I do! Does not seem so? Actually this time I tried primeing some white and some black... Actually the grey comes along as if they have never seen any paint but the went through a state when they all were completely black or white before becoming grey again... ;)

    Unimportant: Got a new laptop today...
    Important: Found this in the box and thought it would make a great start for a spawning pool terrain project...

    Not sure about the feathers on the mask... And again thinking what to use as head for the staff... Something with snakes seems fluff wise fitting... But what?

    Maybe the cobra from the empire wizards set for the top of the staff?

    Regardless of what you pick I think the skink priest looks great. The mask makes him look rather menacing. The feathers look good too.

    What about the snakes from the Basilidon kit, like I used on my slann, it would look like he was casting snakes out of the staff, could work?

    (I'm going to nick this idea)
