    Hi all,

    I've been collecting Lizardmen for about 6 months or so now, and I love the little fellows. I was originally planning a very skink heavy army, because they're so tiny and awesome looking, but I'm only at 500 points right now, so we'll see where my tastes take me. I tend to build my army based more on character, models I like plus making an army that looks good overall on the table and hopefully gives my opponent a fun game.

    About 13 years ago I bought my first WFB boxed set, but me and my brothers never really painted enough to play it properly. We gave 40K a better go, getting up some armies, but again, half of it was unpainted.

    A few years ago, we've offically retired from 40K and fantasy seems to meet what I think are more mature tastes. It's been a huge success for us, and now we have a rule: if it's not painted, it doesn't go on the table! This has led to some great games and even greater painting. :)

    My first army is Tomb Kings, and Lizards are my second. You can check out my Flickr at: http://www.flickr.com/photos/travman_au/ I'm not very good at colour choices, so I tend to stick pretty close the the classic GW schemes.

    I love the hobby, probably enjoying the painting more than the playing, as I like the peace it gives my mind while the rest of the world fades out. I'm quite busy at the moment, but I hope that slowly over time, I can help contribute to the Lizard-folk community.

    Cheers,
    Travman

    Welcome aboard. We look forward to your input (especially on the painting/converting side of things). If we can help with any Lizardmen related questions, please let us know. We also look forward to your insight into TK.

    Welcome, you sound like a painter at heart. I keep getting paint blocked (I'm very slowly working on converting some Lizardmen themed undead), but I love to read various army books and come up with tactics to use.

    Now I'm going to plug the 8th edition Tactica index which I compiled from months of forum postings. It's got good summaries of many micro aspects of the game. The link is in my signature.
