[skinkyone]

[asrodrig]

Hehe your color scheme Tikkl'es Mi...

 

[strewart]

Wow, the green, red and gold work really well together, they should look pretty cool when they are finished. It sure can be tough to find the motivation (and time) to get an army done.

[Aparach]

Nice scheme! did you use any washes?

 

[skinkyone]

do apologise for no updates of yet, i have joined a gym so im never in the mood to paint,
i am forcing myself to do it tonight(with the help of lots of diet red bull)
and have some updates anyway,

current i have painted the banner and pole and started on the metal on 5 of the 6 front rank models,


Aparach

i used washes devlin mudd on the lighter green skin one to bring the shade down
the darker green ones use scorched brown as a base to get a browny undertone.

the test model used washes to allow me to do it quickly,

the shield, helemt will not use washes while being done properly
and no wash will be used on the weapons as i find the red tinge to the stone didnt work as i planned
