My Troglodon's new base is exactly what it deserved from the beginning. Jungle plants were from Amazon, the cattails and tree were from Hobby lobby, i bought them a long time ago though, not sure i have the boxes anymore. Thanks, i'm definitely going to steal this idea.

That feathered serpent was an inspired choice. Looks fantastic. Ha, no, I definitely encourage a Lizard army lol they're a lot of fun to paint And definitely I really love it, will definitely be a central piece to my army, just undecided hownto paint the feathered serpent itself. Pure gem stone is an idea, like jade or quartz, I'm also a huge fan of obsidian. We shall see, needs a tad touch if greenstuff (though, tempted to not out of fear of ruining details), and to decide if anything else needs to be added onto the howdah itself... might add the flame throwers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sinarai Posted February 4, 2021 Share Posted February 4, 2021 Small update on the Engine of Tepok! I primed the howdah about three days ago, finally getting the courage to start, I have begun doing base coats. For the wood elements, I have gone with my redwood recipe, which i will darken a tad before adding highlights; I really love the look of redwood and Birch (common woods used in my models). For the Coatl I have decided on a jade feel, hoping to achieve an aged jade look, I hope to do the same for the black parts of the howdah also, or possibly a purple quartz look. The arches of the Engine itself im opting for a more neutral color, going for a stone look. All fairly early WIP, though I do think the statue of Tepok is looking pretty good! I know Tepoks color is Purple, but I i really love jade. Thoughts are always welcome, more progress to come! 2 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lowki Posted February 14, 2021 Share Posted February 14, 2021 (edited) I finished Kurdoss. My original plan was to make Kurdoss himself also ethereal green (at the edges) so I blended Black into white/grey as preparartion for that. But I actually liked it this way, so decided it to keep it as it is. I think to much hgreen could also be overkill. Not completely happy with the base, but cannot put my finger on it what is missing. I keep it as it is for now, maybe if I look at again after some time, I have a more fresh look at it. I thought this to complete my army, but I forgot about 5 Grimghast Reapers I still have to paint to complete the last unit. If that is finished I can finally say my tale is complete. In the meanwhile also started to do some scenery Edited February 14, 2021 by Lowki 4 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LuminethMage Posted February 14, 2021 Share Posted February 14, 2021 Awesome! The dark is really cool, kind a if he is just appearing out of his throne. Dark bases sometimes feel like they are missing something. I have the same issue, but might not actually be the case, especially when you put the model together with the rest of your army. If not you could always add a broken weapon, skull/bones, torn cloth or something like that. Also, good time for a mid-monthly update, all the painting I have done so far: 3 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sinarai Posted February 14, 2021 Share Posted February 14, 2021 Slowly making progress on my Engine of the Gods, or as I've named it the Engine of Tepok. I've been working real hard on this one, to push myself a bit, especially with highlights; which have been great at bringing my redwood would even more. Also been wanting to tackle my jade & marbled quartz recipes, which I believe have turned out rather well should be able to start the skinks tomorrow, still debating if I want tonadd a Slann onto it over the Priest (maybe magnetize, but we'll see. hoping to maybe continue my Thunder Lizard project after finished with my Stegadons. all in all, rather pleased so far! happy painting everyone (Thunder Lizard in last photo for size comparison) 7 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LuminethMage Posted February 28, 2021 Share Posted February 28, 2021 February went pretty well for me, I finished the Stonemage and 10 Stonegard. Concerning March I’m not really sure. I’ll try to finish at least 5 more Stonegard (they are built and primed already), but then it depends a bit on if the second wave of the Lumineth will be released or not. As soon as I can be my hands on the new Bladelords, they’ll have priority. I really enjoy painting the Stonegard though. 4 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eldarain Posted March 31, 2021 Share Posted March 31, 2021 Back to barely finishing in time. That's more like me. Still going to go back to do gemstones and their blades but definitely table ready 5 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LuminethMage Posted April 2, 2021 Share Posted April 2, 2021 I spent my whole last month on painting Avalenor (and one of the LRL Endless Spells which I finished). He is a lot of work, and I'm still not done at all. Will take my at least a few more weeks. I'll also get my new models likely tomorrow, weee. So a lot to do. I hope this month I'll finish Avalnor and built/prime many of the new models. 3 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sinarai Posted April 18, 2021 Share Posted April 18, 2021 Hey everyone! Been a bit since i posted, but here are two fun new kitbashes/conversions I'm working on, including my first major sculpting work! I am trying to finish them over the course of this month and May: My Feathered Lunar Zenith Dragon (Blood Moon Celennar), and my personal creation for my Seraphon a Unirontosaurian, a Sauropod behemoth and sub species of Thunder Lizard. For Celennar I am working on my blending, working from a dark red/maroon to eventually hopefully a bright pink. For the Unirontosaurian I am mainly trying to finish the howdah, I have one major addition left that I'm waiting on bits for I am really happy with how the dinosaur itself came out, its not museum quality, but i learned a lot for my next sculpt 20210415_212604_1.mp4 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eldarain Posted April 18, 2021 Share Posted April 18, 2021 (edited) Wonderful as always @Sinarai. I'm really excited to see your Celannar and custom character diorama come together.

Oh man, I've been waiting awhile for my Celennar lol so excited! I'm a little sad my whole idea for him didn't work out, but still going to be awesome when done I think. Ellania, my Teclis Stand-in, is going to be a Blue-Moon theme. Tonight I worked on my Seraphon, tomorrow back to Celennar this is my full Teclis & Celennar conversion/kitbash Here is also tonights progress on my Unirontosaurian 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
