Well I was playing around with color schemes to paint a lizardmen army I am starting and came up with this. The skin is going to be the off white and scales will be red with some gloss varnish on them. Now I know this definately isn't a skink or salamander but its what I had on hand. I will post some pictures of finished skinks in the future.

Good job on the model, the bleached bone armour looks great! If you're using him as a test piece for a Lizardman army, I hope you're planning on a bit of highlighting on the red.
The wash just doesn't seem to make the cape stand out, and the blades definitely need a highlight for some real depth. The Lizardman army should look pretty nice in a scheme like that, can't wait to see the start of them!

That's a very nice armour effect. Good complimentary colours between the red and bone.

Thanks, I'll hilight the red a little more on the lizardmen so that will stand out more.
