    My Saurus Warriors:
    [​IMG]
    When the Lizardmen march to battle, it is the Saurus who make up the hardened core of the fighting forces. This is no surprise, for the Saurus were created solely for the purpose of war and protection. The Old Ones cultivated this race of reptilian warriors, although whether they created them entirely, or raised them up from some primordial life form of the jungles, is not clear. What is assured, however, is their role and function. In the prehistory of the world, a time before the coming of Elves or Dwarfs, it was the Saurus who pacified the lands, fighting great battles and exterminating entire species in accordance with the Old Ones' plans. Although unable to master more complicated devices, Saurus use simple weapons to devastating effect - wielding obsidian-tipped spears and heavy clubs spiked with jagged stones. Using their great strength, Saurus can leave the roads and hack through the dense jungles of Lustria using brute force alone.

    Now that I’ve finished both Saurus units, I’ll show them on here as well. First the 18 spear warriors:

    And the 20 club warriors:

    your photo is fine. if you really want an easy improve put them up against a white background like a piece of printer paper, and one under them.

    Nice standard! How did you make the rectangular set of plaques in the middle?

    Highlighting each scale separately must have taken tons of work

    Kinda, but it was fun nevertheless, I do enjoy those kind of things. What really annoys me is basecoating... I wish that I could immediately go to the highlighting stages of any painting project.

    I'm too lazy to do much highlighting. I like basecoating, and minor conversions, like head or weapon swaps.

    What annoys me is having to handle small pieces that need to be painted before assembly

    Hello,

    Very nice stuff here !
    I add my just finished first Saurus Warriors (and first Seraphons)
    I try to make them look as wild seraphons lost in the jungle protecting the remains of their old temple-city

    Saurus warriors are fun to paint, it's just sad that they all look in the same position... I have cut and move some hands to add some dynamism
