Blog Southland army wip - Skinks, stegadon, saurus, slann...

[Andrea Mangoni]

Thanks Warden! The cold one rider has all the body of kroq gar.
More works on skinks - all model has been based, primered and I' m working on the colour scheme with the command group. Ah, I've also add another rank. 18 Skinks total.

another quick post on my wip.
More work on skink's skin, more work on champion, and starting to work on jungle swarms.



My favourite model here is an old citadel baby dragon, now a giant lizard for the swarm:

ciao!

lovely jungle swarms.

 

[Warden]

lovely jungle swarms.

Agreed. Definitely a fan of the use of that baby dragon!

Also like how well you painted the scales of that one swarm all the way on the right of the picture.

And the skinks. Really love those skinks.

These swarms are really nice - I like the mixture of beasts - and am officially jealous

 

[Andrea Mangoni]

Thanks a lot for your interrst friends!
yesterday I've received a plastic stegadon, so today I've converted the model to have an ancient stegadon fitting with my southlands themed army.
All missing pieces will be utilized in a more impressive (I hope!) project.
Ciao!

Nice steg conversion

 

[Andrea Mangoni]

More work on stegadon - I'm satisfied of the skin Colour scheme.

 

[SlanntaClause]

and so you should be

 

[Andrea Mangoni]

More work on stegadon - skin, scales, howda, crew...

 

[Bowser]

This is gorgeous. A brilliant conversion and a great paint job!

 

[NIGHTBRINGER]

This is gorgeous

I agree! Great job.

 

[Warden]

Beautifully painted!

 

[Jorgik]

Looks great so far!!

 

[Andrea Mangoni]

Thanks a lot friends!
more wip - the crew is almost done, howda will require time, work on steggy scales started.

 

[Warden]

I like it! The stegadon has a very "realistic" skin tone/texture, I like the brown/green combo you have painted.

Also from the picture your skinks look very "ghostly," was this on purpose? The jade shading on the skink champion's war club looks fantastic!

 

[NIGHTBRINGER]

Wow... that looks great!

 

[Essmir]

Wow realy nice colour sheme, it's allmost some blancistu over it. And the stegodon is nicely converted and painted.

 

[Andrea Mangoni]

thanks guys!
Essmir: thanks, Blanche is one of mine favourite artist ever!
Warden: really, not. It's probably a fault of my mobile phone camera, I've choose the same green in almost all my skinks model, varing spot and stripes colour to give more character to every unit. May be could be an effect of the eyes, that I've paint from black to red, with white pupils.
Tomorrow I'll try to take better pictures.
ciao!
