    First, my test model, a Saurus Warrior I've affectionately named Bob.

    Afterwards, I began work on Tim. Tim the Carnosaur.

    After this image I realized how stark the color change on the tongue was, and did a wash of Carroburg Crimson to bring them together.

    Bob looks incredible! Great highlights, really gives that blue some great depth. Tim looks amazing! Fantastic work all around.

    I like the name of the carnosaur; I also have my own mini named Tim... a very bad wizard who throws fireballs and is scared of rabbits.

    There must be a way to "like" something harder. Maybe everyone should have a mini named Bob.

    Pretty sure liking something harder involves opening your wallet and trying to shove money down the internets.

    Bob looks like a total bro and Tim looks like that one friend who says he's rubbish at karaoke, but gets a few drinks in him and then sings a knockout version of Bohemian Rhapsody.

    Oh, they're both really nicely painted too!
