    Here are just a few Skinks and a Suarus Warrior from my new army. They're far from being finished, and they're few in number(There are a lot more to come) but it's a start. I still have a bit of washing and highlighting to do, along with the basing(the models aren't actually glued to the bases yet). And dont worry, the weapons are gonna be Gold/Brass lol not that Old worldish sacreligious silver ;)

    i think (as i always do, lol) that a liberal coat of badab black, or possibly a brown ink will do marvels for those models. i recommend a thick layer of ink followed by a quick highlight with each base color at the edges, and you will have a great looking group of models.

    if you are usually painting gold over silver, let me recommend you to instead use GWs yellow "foundation" paint as a basecoat for gold. it makes it much easier to get a nice golden color than painting over silver or black.

    I agree with Tsunami. Those models have a very clean lined paint job. You've got to get some ink/was on those models with a highlight! Good luck.

    They look great and I'll echo what the others are saying about shading and highlighting. My only complaint is that I have seen more than enough Lizzie armies done in blue, but that's just me...

    There is a lot of blue, but that is like saying most people paint dark elves in black, or wood elves in brown and green, or night goblins in black.
