    This is an amazing overlook of the army. It is an impressive sight.
    The heroes stand out very nice.

    And all of this is done this (half) year, if I am correct(?) :wideyed:

    Keep up the good work

    Grrr, Imrahil

    Thank you mate! I really tried to take my time with the skin tones to make them softer and realistic.


    Yeah I love how they all look together. I started them in August 2020 so coming up on 1 year now, but I have also been painting my Republic force and some Lizards in that time too haha.

    Not much painting time this week but I have managed to finish my quick test model for my Greenstuffworld Liquid Pigments. He's my first ever (and probably last) painted space marine and is painted only using these Liquid Pigments.

    Hoping to have some more painting time the rest of the month and make some solid progress on my AT-RT.

    Excellent!

    Love the green and how you made it look battle damaged.

    Quick weekend update. I finished both the rider and the base for my AT-RT.

    The AT-RT is finished in time for the end of the month. Here it is with its choice of 3 weapons.

    With that done, all of my built and primed Star Wars models are finished.
    I think next up on the painting table is my Woogity sculpt Saurus Cowboy!! :eek:

    I try to avert my gaze but it draws my eye towards it haha.
    The purple spray just makes the first base coat for the purple skin take only one coat instead of 2 or 3.

    Thanks dude, I'm really happy with this one :)

    Really nice work with the weathering and detail work, like the color on the end of the flamer. Great stuff! That saurus cowboy model is awesome too, where is that from? I wish the gw models were that good haha!

    Thank you! :)

    The cowboy is a sculpt from years ago by Woogity, a member on here who isn't active these days. He did a limited run of this Saurus cowboy and a set of 3 Kroxigor which I have also. Unfortunately they aren't available anymore :(
