Hello Everybody,
For today's post I painted my Lizardman, I really like how they turned out. One of the things I really like about fantasy games, is that you can create a background for your miniatures. So here is the lore for my Lizardmen. All of my Lizardmen have spawned in Metot, a village somewhere in Lustria where a Dark Slann mage rules. He has made a deal with the Chaos Gods so they will give him more power. The Dark Slann banned a lot of people who might know something is wrong in his behaviour. Because if anyone would find out that he joined Chaos, they would depose him. For example: he orders one of his loyal guards to steal a cake from the bakery and he then blame someone who's smart enough to figure out that he was bad. Everyone that was banned gathered and moved on together. They found a Skink Priest: a hermit that moved out of the village because the Slann mage didn't want to do anything about the ‘Chaos problem’. One day the Priest received a vision from the Old Ones. They told him the Demon Be'Lakor struck down in Mordheim. So as a true warband of the Old Ones they went to Mordheim to save the world and if possible munch on my Dad's Dwarves.
One of the things I really like about Lizardmen are the details I changed on their shields, they originally had decaptitated heads which I removed and I put some other parts (from a drum) on them.
The bases I tried to make them grassy/forest-like and I am really happy with the effect I got.
As for points these 4 figures in 29mm scale will be good for 20 points. Next post will be a surprise.

TeemuL: Dark Slann joining Chaos! I guess Jervis hasn't thought about that! Very nice backstory, Arthur. Red-Yellow-Blue tricolor is very effective colour scheme and you have used it well on these rebel Lizardmen. Your bases look like swampy rainforests (I never been to one, though) and I guess that was what you were after. Good job. Goed gedaan!
P.S. If you are after points, then Library Map might be useful for you?
