    Hi, here you find some of my models.
    I'm building an army of southerlands luzardmen, inspired by the old books of lizzies...
    This is one of my skink priests, that I've painted as an Albino. It's a simple convetsion, with the arrows changed with an old saurus sword. P6235504.jpg P6235505.jpg

    This is one my generals, an oldblood. A conversion of a new templeguard, with the classic templeguard arm with axe, part of a banner as shield, and an oldblood head. sh1.jpg sh3.jpg

    Very nice painting :)

    Edit: loving the Slann skink - can't help but think that model would make a perfect vagrant/hobo model looks like hes carrying a bag of worldly belongings on his back - but is really awsome still :D

    I really like your work! The bases look good, and I am definitely a fan of how you have painted the scales. Lovely classic models!

    Thanks Camazotz! the jade effect it'utilized only for hero weapons; the infantry has brass or golden weapons. The effects is done with some old citadel colours - jade green and sunburst yellow.

    Great old blood conversion, never seen anyone use that banner as a shield,
    and where did you get that sweet ax from ?

    Hi and thanks friends!
    @n810: the right arm come from the old temple guard champion.

    I add some of my WIP increasing and building my southern land army.

    every Shaman should have a bodygard unit, so this is my first unit of skink with weapon and shield:

    sl5.jpg

    and for a better safety, also a Kroxigor should be helpful:

    The models are some new and old models, some converted. the work on this unit it's only starting, the colour scheme will be black and green.
    also the kroxigor will be probably partially repainted.

    This is not a model for a Southernland army, but I like the idea: Oldblod on Cold one, conversion: sl7.jpg sl6.jpg

    Next step, a new - old - converted slann.
    ciao!

    Interesting head-grill on that kroxigor. Also that skink unit looks like it already has tons of character! Can't wait to see it painted. :artist:

    Also I like the use of the old metal kroq-gar head on the cold one rider. Thanks for sharing!
