Cozamalotl, Skink of the Konquata Monitors
Painting
Cozamalotl is my test Skink for my new color scheme. He was painted with an undercoat of Games Workshop Ice Blue. His scales and crest were given a light coat of Vallejo Hawk Turquoise. He was then given a full body wash of P3 Turquoise Ink. His skin was then highlighted with Vallejo Jade Green. His shoulder pads are GW Mechrite red with a Blood Red drybrush and a Blazing Orange Highlight, finished with Skull White for the numerals. His claws are Snakebite Leather with Bleached Bone and Skull White highlights. His eyes are Sunburst Yellow with Chaos Black pupils. His mouth was very carefully inked black. The base is Goblin Green with static grass, Chaos Black and Skull White for the Name and Number.
Cozamalotl is an authentic Nahuatl name, and the numerals on his shoulder pads read “32” in Mayan numerals.
Konquata Monitor Kroxigor
Three posts in one day? You have to admit, the Epic army post was pretty weak. So, here’s a Kroxigor.
The only thing I have left to do is rip apart one of my Skinks and make one more star player.
MOAR LEE-ZARD
Finished 7 more regular skinks and the skink star player Hemlock, who has the special rule Stab.
…can you tell which one has Stab?
Blood Bowl: The Konquata Monitors
Recently I got into Blood Bowl. I haven’t played a game (due to a traffic jam DAMMIT) but I have a serviceable team raring to go. We are the Konquata Monitors, a Lizardmen team. Here is an image dump:
As you can see, I have six Saurus Warriors, eight Skinks, and two Saurus Star players. The Saurus were made from Temple Guard with Saurus Warrior left arms and Tyranid Carnifex armor plates. The Skinks have Genestealer armor plates cut in half. Each half makes one shoulder pad.
For the star players, there were no open hands available in the Lizardmen line. So, I used a piece of putty, coated it with oil, and wrapped it around the fist. Then, I CAREFLLY removed the mould and flattened it out. This gave me straight fingers. I then moulded the fingers over and over until I got enough to do each hand. Each finger was cut out, trimmed, and putty was added to fill out the finger. Putty was also added to make new nails. The one on the flying base represents the Star Player Lottabottol, who has diving catch. The other is Sillibilli who has block.
In the Warhammer Fantasy world, the Lizardmen have recently conquered the island of Albion, which they call Konquata. Lord Kroak personally formed the Konquata Monitors out of Saurus and Skinks from the First Spawning from the newly made spawning pools on Albion. Their mandate is to dominate the sport of Blood Bowl to advertise that Albion will belong to the Lizardmen for all time.
Next up: more Skinks including Star Player Hemlock, and a Kroxigor modded with Trygon bits!
