Greetings again from Spain. I couldn't post anything last week because we're currently in the middle of university exams here in Spain, and I've been grading more than I'd like.
First of all, I'd like to thank everyone who voted for my entry in the Bonus Theme Empire. Congratulations to the other participants, because all the entries were excellent.
This year I had planned to paint mainly French units for my Napoleonic army, but... my brother changed those plans, at least partially. He recently bought a Warmaster Dwarf army, and since I still had my Lizardmen armies in their bags... I had no choice but to start working on them.
So far, I've managed to paint, in the last two weeks (I couldn't post last week), a unit of Saurus, a unit of Skinks, and a unit of Kroxigors.
First, I'll show you the big ones: the Kroxigors.

The second unit I painted was the Saurus.

The third was the Skinks, for which I changed the metallic tones to make them even more distinctive.

Finally, I've managed to paint a colonel on horseback for my old guard.

As always, I followed my preferred painting style: White Primer, Xpress paint, Contrast, metallics, washes, and then highlights.
In summary
9 x 10 mm Infantry models Kroxigors @1 points = 9 points.
30 x 10mm Infantry model Saurus @1 points = 30 points.
24 x 10mm Infantry model Skinks @1 points = 24 points.
1 x 20mm Mounted model @8 points = 8 points.
Total 71 points.
I've rated the Kroxigors as 10mm models even though they're actually 15mm in comparison, but the skinks are smaller so...
Cheers Rafa
Why Rafa, you are a fellow teacher as well!? Oh do we know how bad grading is for the available hobby time indeed! I have just finished a large amount of correctionwork myself and am currently onto painting again but nothing so fancy as your stuff shown here! That Old Guard officer is just so incredibly well detailed and crisp and the Lizardmen are very vibrant too. As you correctly pointed out the points on these lizardmen are a bit hard to establish well so I am granting you 4 bonus points in order to get a more rounded out 75 points on these excellent small lizards.
Cheers Sander
Love the Lizardmen but the Colonel is magnificent.
ReplyDeleteHuzzah. Another Warmaster submission. These are fabulous Rafa. Some friends are furiously painting armies and one is doing lizards as well. He lives a long distance away so we meet only a couple times a year. I’ve sent the link to your post to him for inspiration. Again fabulous work.
