Deadly's Constellation

So this is my skink chief I just started. I'm just not really sure if I made the bow too big. I wanted him to match some old skinks w/bows

 

WOW that makes it look so badass!! nice work

 

This is so cool! That is an amazing idea for a skink chief. Looks so good can't wait to see it painted.

 

Thanks guys. I wouldn't get too excited for an awesome paint job, I'm not the greatest painter. I just have fun with the conversions and bases

 

Doesn't have to be a great paint job to look great, the conversion is amazing, the paint job will just highlight that.

 

Yeah so he definitely has a bow that is WAY bigger than the old skinks with bows...

That being said that is an AWESOME conversion that I REALLY WISH I had though of myself! While he wouldnt work for a normal rank-and-file skink, eh would definitely work to be one killer skink chief. That skink is like the Chuck Norris of skinks. Dang that is so awesome. Fantastic idea thanks for sharing!!!!!!!!

edit: I have saved this picture for future reference. If I ever have the right left over bits to make a similar model I plan to make a tribute to this skinks awesomeness

 

Best Skink Ever

 

you could use some pieces of fine wire twisted together to make a decent bow string.

 

AWESOME!!!!

 

That's not a bad idea, I was originally going to use fishing line, but I've got tons of thin gauge wire hanging around that I could use instead. Hmmm

 

I finished his base tonight, just some simple rocks, nothing really fancy, but I'm still happy with how it turned out

 

Looks really nice and natural super effective

 

Thanks, honestly the cork bark and aragonite sand does all the work, it's got the nicest mix of big chunks and fine sand, and cork bark has an awesome rock texture after some drybrushing

 

I also did some work on my Lord Kroak, he's pretty much done except for some highlights on the rocks on his base

 

That one looks great! Cool tree .... Some real roots turned upside down, right?

 

Holy hell I live that please tell me you have plenty of wip pic's cuz dammit I would like to try something like this kroak

 

Your Kroak is amazing! Absolutely gorgeous ! Such a great idea.

 

Haha thanks guys, it's actually some old manzanita driftwood (all driftwood is not created equally) which has awesome branch-like structures. And I don't have much in terms of wip pics, but the tree is pinned in place using paperclips, and then the clump foliage is just large chunks kept together by some fine wire snaked throughout and then sealed together using matte sealer. It was a pretty simple conversion that people love. Only issue I have with it is that when looked at from directly above, it looks just like a normal clump foliage tree

 

Did some work on the chief tonight, thought id line him up to see how well the skin tones matched between all my skinks

 

Looking like a true hero and leader of skinks
