    Didn't have the best day today, but painting this guy helped me get through it. Kroxigor Ancient, going to be a unit "leader" for my Kroxies, even though they don't technically get one in the rules...

    Thanks! Contrast paints make everything easier, lol! I'm really looking forward to using him in a game soon!

    Very nice kroxigor, looks like it stepped right out of Total War Warhammer 2!

    Here's a non-Seraphon model I got done yesterday, an ally to my brother's Orruk/Gitz army. Goblin Skuttleboss on Giant Spider. The spider is based off a red-knee tarantula:

    And I've been working on painting a lot this weekend, lol! Here's a One Page Rules Slann. I'm not sure I like the Terradon Turquoise color I used for his skin, though. It looks very "smudgy" and not nearly as good under normal lighting as it looks in this picture. I don't know if I should strip the paint on it and start again with Talassar Blue as the color? I'd be interested to hear people's opinions on this, plus I don't know if you need to use different chemicals to strip resin vs. plastic... But here he is:

    I love that turquoise on the slann. Really unique look, maybe just needs another thin layer, but it looks super cool.

    Thanks! I might leave it then, and just put a thin layer over some areas to try and even it up a bit. Now I just need to figure out a good base for him. I'd like to have him elevated a bit, but the OPR mini seems to be meant to sit flat on a base. It seems like he'd look really out of place sitting really low to the ground like that, though.

    The old slann used to be carried by slaves, maybe that could work for you.

    Hmm, maybe I could find an old Slann palanquin on Ebay with the Temple Guard bearers to use as his platform...

    Just some sprue and temple guard on the current one would work!

    I'm not sure I'm confident enough that I could do a conversion like that well yet, but it does sound like it would be fun to try!

    I also finished the first of my One Page Rules Saurus Warriors today. These guys look really good, but are also much more detailed than the GW minis and a lot harder to paint, lol!
