r/seraphon

Finally picked up the brushes again and finished this model that i've been working on since this set came out. Spent countless hours shading all the scales and completing the non metal metal gold parts. Tried to keep it authentic to some other reptiles with albinism and also the classis Lizardmen style! if people would like tutorials on scales, please let me know. Every part of this model was painted with GW paints and cheep brushes, so as long as you've got a steady hand and time, you can do this as well :)

I’m considering picking up the Seraphon Spearhead box (Saurus Astrolith Bearer/big carnosaur rider, Skinks, Saurus Warriors) and I’m trying to figure out how viable it is as a foundation for a full Age of Sigmar army.

A few questions:

Has anyone bought this box twice to build toward a 2,000 pt list? How does that scale in practice, does it give you a reasonable core or do you end up with awkward duplicates?

How does the Seraphon Spearhead stack up against other current Spearhead boxes in terms of on-table performance and competitiveness?

Where does the general consensus currently place Seraphon Spearhead, strong, mid, or weak compared to the rest of the format?

I’m an stormcast player and would like to dip my toe k to different water, to get different experience

Would appreciate input from anyone who’s played it a few times or compared it against other factions.

He well get the shield that normaly belongs to the champion not sure if i will do ir like all shields or if i schould try to make a mossy stone shield like vibe cause of the standart.

The feather im not sure if yet but the tips will get a violet fade probably with drybrush.

Let me know whata ye think

sorry for the bad picture quality

Like a lot of people here, I’m brand new to miniature painting. I decided to make my first Spearhead a Seraphon Starborne army, and I absolutely loved the process.

I followed these two painting guides from Matt’s Hobby Hour pretty closely, and they were excellent introductions for someone painting minis for the first time:

Starborne Saurus Warriors

Starborne Kroxigor

Still have a lot to learn, so I’d love any feedback or tips!

Looking for tips to improve on my seraphon, I have been around 1 year painting and learning them.

Also my 4th mini in general and im really proud tbh

I found this image, its from an artist on instagram but I would absolutely love to replicate the aggradons paint scheme. - I have dm'd them asking but no luck yet

Does anyone have any ideas how it was done?

Im assuming a white base, skeleton hoard then maybe casandora yellow? then no idea on the orange.

On my knees to figure this out

I'm painting up some lizard men I acquired second hand, and im alittle torn on the shield, i dont know if I like the blue (there is alot of blue on the model).

Constructive Critiques are welcome. I've been lurking in this reddit for a little bit and finally made the jump into sigmar-spearhead. So any advice on playing is also welcome.

In the tropics North of Ulthuan lies a Geographically insignificant, volcanic archipelago. This small collection of islands is known to some as the Obsidian Islands.

Deep within the jungles of one of these Isles, the Island of Coatl-Itza, lies the ancient, forgotten city of Zlan-Tepec. The Lizardmen of Zlan-Tepec lost contact with their Itza cousins millenia ago, and have faded from the memory and records of their kin, and the races of the wider world.

It is hardly a wonder they have endured. Protected from prying sea vessels by massive obsidian cliffs and rock formations, and situated in rich, verdant, volcanic jungle, this small civilisation has continued its work towards the great plan, still carrying out the tasks assigned to them by the Venerable Lord Kroak thousands of years ago, rebuilding and researching ancient structures they believe were built by the Old Ones themselves...

Hi everyone, hope you like this custom Lizardmen creation. Thought up some homebrew lore for them. It took me a pretty long time to be happy with the color scheme, but once I felt happy with it these guys were a blast.

I’m especially stoked with how the chameleons look on their “movement tray”

Hope you enjoy!

C&C welcome

Hi guys since my Old blood on Aggradon had good feedbacks it motivated me to keep going on my Seraphons and start the Sunbloods. Here is the first one. Your feedbacks are a fuel for me so thank you ! Once again, if you are curious and wanna see my other minis you can check my Instagram 📷 : Holy.skorn_studio

As someone that hates base decorating these actually felt like the grasses actually matched but still never found a basing that I actually liked. I got a box of the Saurus Warriors built them with spears just looking for anything I could do better. These mini's of the month I started as red to orange and then really didn't like the look and changed to greens which I liked better.

Please let me know what i could do better, sadly it dosent look as good as in irl.

Sculpted a scar veteran for my aggradon lancers using some GW bits and polymer clay

I kinda wanna use the spare chain as a belt what do you guys think would that look cool? Would it go against some rule?
