    Hi gang. I was on here briefly a while ago, and was just getting started painting up my Seraphon. Well, some life stuff came up that I had to deal with, and painting supplies laid fallow on my table. I was getting ready to go back to it earlier this year, but my house had a burst pipe *right over my painting table*. That's right, my painting setup, and all the boxes of lizards, were ground zero for a flooding event. Amazingly, nothing was destroyed except my walls and floor... the important things (my wife and miniatures) survived the disaster.

    My house still isn't fixed, but I've decided that while all this foolishness is going on, I'm going to paint anyway, even if I have to do it on a folding table on a concrete floor. I'm trying to build toward a Thunder Lizards force, so here's what I have so far:

    Sorry for the poor photography!

    Good to see you back.
    Sad news about the house, but good news you and your loved ones are save.

    Introducing "Don" the Bastiladon. The painting went pretty well, but Don taught me that I'm not as good at gluing things as I thought I was.

    We had some angst but ultimately I'm happy with him.

    The paint job is great, you should be happy with this.

    The jewel is particularly well done.

    Nice work on the slann mage priest!

    Also like the inclusion of the skulls on the base :hungover::D

    Yep, nice job on the froggy.
    The red is a nice contrast to the grey and green.

    Nice job on your lizards! Just lovely paint jobs on all of them. I really dig the pinkish-purple Carnosaur. I agree with @Aginor, the red really makes the Slann stand out.

    Great work(s)! :artist:

    I like how awesome the saurus head looks from the side.

    His shield is fuzzy in the picture but I like the color choices!
