    Thank you, once again, for the nice words guys :)

    Well, my thought was that purple is basic troops (units that come from spawning pools). You know, Skinks, Sauruses and Kroxes. And all the other Lizzies Will be painted differently. But I understand your curiosity :p

    I've waited longer than necessary with this Update, while I hoped my boyfriend would finish dwarf-beard-guide. Well, he didn't!

    The last couple of weeks/days have been spend on movement trays, and actually my two skirmish trays are completely done. Funny how much such movement trays do... Anyways, pictures:

    My curent project is a unit of skinks for my kroxigors. Pictures first:

    So far the GS on the movement tray is done. The bases still need a jungleflower (or 2?), a tree on the unitfiller to the left (seen from behind) and an alter on the big unitfiller. There's going to be some kind of offering to the Old Ones - probably a Skaven. The Skink Chieftain (metal), with the heart raised into the air in his fist, will stand behind the alter. Think it's going to look awesome!

    Right now I'm removing mold lines on the Skink bodies. 10 down, 7 to go (and 34 arms, sigh). Giving you an update again when the unit is ready for some basecoat! ;)

    That's going to rock - great work! It's decision time for me in choosing a color scheme for my Krox. I was thinking of a complimentary color to my skinks instead of the same coloration. If you can offer some advice, please do have a look at my plog! Thanks.

    Giving this thread a small bump :muted::shamefullyembarrased::artist:. AMAZING work, beautifully painted lizardmen, and some inspiring bases. I love the saurus literally running out of the spawning pool and grabbing their weapons. And that skink base. Lots of great inspiration here.

    What's a large bump? This thread had been dormant for 5 years, lol.

    And yes, her artistry is amazing. Would make a great Tyranid theme as well.

    Looks like she turned her back on her Lustrian brothers and sisters. :( A shame too because her work is awesome.

    She got a kid :) I knew her when she was still painting and talked a bit to her after. Lost contact tho :)

    Her boyfriend was also a VERY good painter and painted some of the best looking Highelves I have seen in a long time :)

    The thread tho i think is dead. She wont be returning any time soon with new models :( She hasnt posted anything for ages on our Danish forum either. :(
