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

You did have a nice time alone if you got all of this done
Nice colors on the carno, airbrush i presume?

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.

Got myself some time today and made some progress - shaded carnosaur and base coated skink priest.

 

[Xicohtencatl]

Just a little work done this week... but had a blast on yesterdays DnD session I hope to make more progress this weekend.

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,.

 

[Explodingzeb]

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

 

[Xicohtencatl]

Hey scaly fellas, did you make some progress on weekend? I did a fare share on skink and carnosaur

 

[Xicohtencatl]

And started another hero model - skink priest
