    Still loving your color scheme. Just enough red/orange on the minis and the base to make them really stand out. And all that beautiful basing :lurking:

    I am a fan of green Lizardmen models so naturally I am a fan :android::lurking::meh::wideyed::D:D

    Awesome!! Great, great work especially when you consider the number of models you're dealing with… As for the bases, maybe more green would be cool, but to my mind what you could do as well would be to use more saturated colours on the ground. It looks awesome anyway! Even being a bit pale they have good contrast with the skin…

    I'm back!
    I thought the website crashed or was lost. But, i finally found the page!
    So below is my latest update. It's a Kroxigor. I'm still slowly piecing through the painting.
    20180531_204003.jpg 20180531_204022.jpg

    Moving on to paint the rest of the Krox and move to the Steg. I think i want to paint the Steg red or reddish brown. So if you have any feedback or painting tips, fire away.
    Cheers

    Ok after a long time away.... the new year has been slightly productive.

    Finished 2 additional Kroxs and started 3 more

    Laid down some foundation colours on the three Raz.

    Oh and started playing around with the stone work of the steg...
    20190113_201258.jpg
    For the remainder of the month i want to start laying down some colours on these guys and finish up the last of the 40 remaining skinks... (ugh skinks...)
    20190113_201331.jpg 20190113_201447.jpg 20190113_201518.jpg
    As i am about to buy some old school saurus, i am thinking of having them with blue-green scales and dark green flesh. That way i can tie in the temple guard with having dark green flesh and reddish brown scales.... which will hopefully tie into the steg that will be reddish brown? Not sure on the final plan, but its time to paint!

    As always, please leave any feedback!
    Cheers

    It's looking great so far! Love the colours on the Krox. 40 skinks sure is a lot though… You deserve congratulations just for taking them on if you ask me ^^

    Did you use an Aztec Rolling Pin for the imprints on the bases? Looks really amazing so far! Was thinking of getting one for my bases but decided against it, maybe another time.

    Ok i am crawling out of the spawning pool to get back to posting! Some updates include:
    Finishing more skinks and kroxigors.
    Printing and painting some terrain
    Pyramid 1.jpg Pyramid 2.jpg
    Printing a lot of models (Bastiladon solar engine? and Troglodon)
    Solar Engine.jpg Troglodon.jpg

    And started working my new center piece.... SOTEK!

    Yeah, Sotek is gigantic. I have been slowly chipping through the painting of this beast. The goal is to get this centerpiece done early next year.

    Cheers

    Happy New Year to all! i started the year by working on Sotek. The goal was to try knock out all the red areas of the model. The red effect i am chasing is an almost stained fire look.

    So hopefully that looks ok... I don't really know where to take the red. But, done is better than perfect! So we will keep chugging along.

    This weeks goals are to finish the belly (kind of a sandy grey look) and start on the wings.

    Cheers
