My favorite Skinks...

Hey folks!

New pictures of my favorite skink unit from a while back:

Excellent work as always wapellious!

 

I think it's my Skink favorite ever.

 

Many thanks! There was just something about this color combo that I liked so much. I guess some of the new Rippers and Terries might have to be this color!

 

Very cool, I can see why you like him. Great choice on the shield colour, as well. Goes nicely with the cool colours of the skink. I would love to see your take on Terradons and/or Rippers!

 

Thanks! I do have some older pics of the original terradons that I painted. I know they are on the blog, but I also posted some pics here. Right now I am making bases for the new terries and rippers...

 

Those skinks look very good. Excellent work.

 

What made these especially satisfying was the new glazing technique developed to paint these guys...

 

Awesome technique! The layering is so smooth it reminds me of painting with water colors.

 

Thanks! I was a watercolor artist by trade, so at a certain point, I realized that I should adapt that to miniature painting!

 

Ah, that explains it! Like others have said, looking forward to seeing your monsters.

 

Yes, if you check out the blog, you will find dozens and dozens of examples of that glazing technique in use!

 

Are you the same person that made this ??

That is some dope Skinks! Holy s**t they look good. Did you make the bases by yourself also? Wish i could make my skinks in a similar color-scheme but it might be to hard.

 

Yep, there is only one Wappellious.

 

He he!

Thanks for the kind words!

I have almost 100 posts on basing techniques along on the blog. Here is one of a series for chameleon skinks:
