    Finished all the Cold-Ones for my first squad of saurus Death Riders.
    Their colours were differentiated based on the head shape. I like having a bit of variety. Undecided if the riders should be different colours too or all united.

    Absolutely you should do it! Its a great exercise of creativity in terms of how to figure out how to do the models and how to figure out some lore. My army's lore can be found here https://www.lustria-online.com/threads/guns-of-sotek.27516/

    And yeah, I'm running these as imperial guard because I love tanks. The tanks also work as a great canvas to apply decorations.

    Was not as productive today as I thought I could have been. Still, added the explosive charges to the lances to make these more rough-rider like.

    The squadron leader is also shaping up nicely.

    I am so slow at painting, aghhhh!
    Anyways, here is the colour scheme for my first set of Saurus Death Riders
    The orange dorsal spikes signify that these were spawned in the new world.
    As soon as I have the spear shafts and feathers painted, they will have at least one arm. I have forgotten to sort out the other arms which will be a selection of shields and guns.

    Been prepping a bunch of equipment to hang from their saddles and those equipment belts I spent far too long on.
