    Hello everyone,
    So I've decided to post my progress in working my way up to a fully painted 6th edition Lizardmen army, which has been a project that I've had in mind for the last 10 years or so, just never got around to doing it.
    In fact, I already have most of the models I need, they've been lying around my garage for all these years :eek:

    For anyone who's interested you can find my little introduction post over here: Click me!

    That being said, I've decided to post my progress here to keep myself motivated.

    Alright so first things first, these are the first few models I've gotten around to painting.
    A skink priest and a handful of temple guards, which are still WIP.

    Bam! The skink chief and his two improvised, cheap-ass jungle swarms are good to go.. or at very least once they get a dab of water effects

    Lovely models. Skink Priest is particularly beautiful.

    These are fantastic paint jobs! I love the moss on the Troll's back!

    Thanks man, quite enjoyed the way the Troll came out. Always a satisfaction when you manage to properly integrate the model to the base.

    Alright, so almost done with my temple guard, a few more details and adding water effects after I've made their movement tray. A few notes, I think I hate the tails of the saurus.. made it near impossible to rank up. Also I was a whole lot less enthusiastic about painting them then I thought I would be, perhaps it's due to their blocky poses? Either way, super happy to move on to something new now - next step will most likely be a big Dino, either Kroq-gar or a stegadon.

    I've magnetized my Saurus and then they're fine on ranking up.

    I worked out a simple way to do it, PM me if you want the details.

    Hey man, just did the same, problem was I had not accounted for the tails when making the bases, so blocked some tails with bushes and what have you.
