    Thanks! So far I did only the basic colors, no shades, or drybrushing. Updates will be posted as I go :)

    Keep up the good work.

    Thanks Imrahill, indeed we spent some quality time together with them models :) Yes it is airbrush , I saw few tips and tricks on youtube, but this will be my first big airbrushed model. But as I have said now the real work begins, shading , details to be painted and highlighting. :cool:

    Thanks a bunch!

    Im messing with Vallejo Air color range - I used them on wet pallet as normal paint. Those colors are really watery and fun to use :) but since my main army is astra militarum this is my first time doing something else than dark colors and shades ....so im having this model as a practice round kind of, thinking of the skinks priests would be more colorful than the rest of the army,.

    The good thing about Lizardmen/Seraphon is you can use whichever colours you like and go as bright as you fancy. So much choice!

    Superb work!
    I especially like the little white dot highlights on the Skink.
