    Good highlights on the models! I like how each base looks different from the others. And that glossy on the weapons looks very nice.

    Made a little base for my magnetised Skink Priest from my Stegadon so he can be run separately.

    Love your use of vibrant colors and intense saturation.

    The finished bases for my Salamander Hunting Pack. I'll probably have pictures of the fully finished unit tomorrow.

    IMG_20210211_225914.jpg IMG_20210211_230152.jpg IMG_20210211_230506.jpg IMG_20210211_230638.jpg IMG_20210211_230729.jpg IMG_20210211_230950.jpg

    I tried to show some burnt wood and glowing ember effects as though the Salamander had previously been shooting fire around the swamp.

    The bases look great. Love the small water effect element.

    The completed Salamander Hunting Pack.
    I tried to make the flame sacs look like they are glowing from the inside.

    This looks so awesome. Just five little dioramas!
    I love the sculpts and you did them justice:artist::artist:

    The basing is spot on and I very much like the Blue accents on the handlers.

    Grrr, Imrahil

    Thank you!
    Originally I wasn't sure whether to do the little freehand scales on their backs but in the end I thought they needed that extra colour to really pop and it ties these older sculpts in with the colours on my newer skinks nicely.


    Thanks :)
    I'm really happy with the colour combos
