PLEASE! Paint more of these!! The most difficult thing with this army is not picking a color scheme, it's HOW to make the color scheme work on the army, especially for new painters. More schemes and tutorials on how to make colors work is SO VALUABLE to me and many others!
a year later and im starting a seraphon army. This still stands. I like the colors ive picked but its so hard to figure out how i want things to play together. I want them to all be similar color schemes but while still differentiating species. Or like my skinks, finding a way to make it lore-like with them all looking different, but still uniform to a certain degree
Definitely would love to see more colour schemes for them! Not a big fan of the standard blue scheme myself, so seeing these has made my day love to see more!
Goddamnit Henry. Now I really want some Lizardmen! Also, can I just say I love the CoP videos as you give us so many principals to use in other ways. Super easy to use this method for other colours and like you said, demons and the like too.
would love to see you tackle a vanguard! the sisters combat patrol project was awesome and seeing more of these models and the approach to more organic shapes and advanced use of contrast type paints would be really cool!!!
It’s like you are a mind reader. As you were painting the Necro Gold I thought “do you apply a wash to it” and you immediately said “no washes here”, lol!
I absolutely loved this video, very solid takes on both the Coalesced and Starborne aesthetics, although I admit I'm more partial to your red Starborne here (it's both unique and so cool!). I will cast an additional vote imploring you to do a Vanguard/Starter Set video when that's possible MOAR SCHEMES please :)
4:25 in my testing I have found the contrast medium to be quite matt; much more matt that the contrast paints themselves. So matt in fact that it can matt down a glossy ink even in a ratio of 2 ink to 1 contrast medium.
With spearhead coming out, I would love to see more Seraphon videos, particularly the kroxigor or krox Warspawned models! I'd like to use armypainter speedpaints or contrast to paint them up quickly, and seeing your take on those would be brilliant!
These look amazing, I always want just a single miniature so that I can copy your paint jobs. It would also be cool to see a star lizard style blue skin across the underbelly as well with maybe a muted scale colour. As far as the Vanguard box, I would happily watch and enjoy the videos, but IMO I would prefer more of these videos where you show how to easily paint effective army paint schemes. Really enjoy the content and the delivery regardless.
Please stop this! These look absolutely fantastic and now I have to buy a load of Seraphon models that I wasn’t even interested in before I saw this video. It’s the FIFTH time you’ve done this to me Henry - you’re killing me man…. (Well, you’re killing my wallet and my storage space anyway). Seriously though dude, absolutely frickin love your army colour schemes - keep up the great work! (I can stop spending money when I’m dead, right?! 😂).
Love your work, saw you at gd but you guys were getting swamped. Got to see your amazing dreadnought just before you put him away :) congrats to Andy on his trophy
Damn these are cool! Altough I like the green more. I think a kinda more "realistic" look on these new modells looks absolutely fabulous and superior (I blame Miniac's seraphon paint).
I just got into the hobby and my first army is the Seraphon. Please do more Seraphon! The vanguard box would be wonderful but could you do the Spawn of Chotec as well?
i love the lizardmen, they were my army back during the fantasy battle days. too bad i don't care for age of sigmar because these are very nice saurus warriors
What about the black parts like the spear shaft or the claws, did you work something else on them appart from a black base coat?? They look amazing, congratulations!
i'm just using my old paint sceme i have used since playing lizardmen in fantasy. :) black body with red scales. :) for the crest it variates in yellow, orange and red. for the dinoes different colors from real lizards. :)
Thanks for the tutorial, Henry, they really do look great! For the first scheme, if you don't do the first coat with the airbrush, how would you do that base coat with the brush? Just omit it and start straight with the thinned out Plaguebearer Flesh over Wraithbone? Or thin the Plaguebearer even more for the first coat and then go in with a second to give it some more shading? Oh and yes, do more Seraphon and Age of Sigmar in general! :D
Hi Martin, either straight over the wraithbone, or mix the 2 and basecoat it. I tried it without the airbrush layer and the difference isnt huge, i just preferred the look and speed.
@@cultofpaint lol!!!! They’re SUCH nice models. In fact maybe the nicest models in GW I’ve ever bought (for non command units anyway). Both of the head sculpts are amazing and the poses are all very nice too. Hoping the new Leviathan launch doesn’t mean they get overlooked, as nice as the new models in that are too.
Seraphon video's get an instant click from me, so please paint a Vanguard box when GW releases one. Even better if you can turn the box into a motley crew of colourful dinosaurs.
Question! What did you prime with, and what was the black you put on the weapons/back spikes? I didn't see it mentioned and don't see it on the paints list. I am guessing Wraithbone Primer and then the black is either Abbadon or Chaos? But I would just like clarification. Thanks!
I have a question for the green one. On the first Plaguebearer base coat, when you're saying it's not necessary to airbrush it, do you mean this first coat isn't necessary, or do you mean I should do it with a regular brush ? If it's the 2nd option, how would you have it so flat and not going in the recesses like the contrast paints do ? Amazing job on both of these! Definitely going to use the green one on my army!
I like the flat coat it gives you. To get that without the airbrush you’d ideally want to mix up a similar colour from a normal acrylic, basically a green off white. Then base coat with that. I don’t think it makes a massive difference, but I prefer it to going straight in with the contrast paint.
I've been rewatching this video over and over as I prepare myself to paint Mt saurus in that beautiful green scheme. And I'm interested in the way you pour your contrast paint out onto your wet pallette whilst using your brush. Is there a reason for this? Does the paint not run into the ferrule of the brush?
Your video is actually insane, but can you tell me plz the color you use for the black line on the red saurus scales ? Very impressive job, good work !!!
I love both these schemes, and I feel like trying out both! The only paint I don’t have from the ones you used is Dreadful Visage. Is there an alternative you think could work out?
Really love the colour schemes particularly the yellow/green one. Looking at a colour wheel, I can see why it works so beautifully. Moving from the Yellow, to the Yellow-Green, to the Green with pops of Teal/Turquoise is very pleasing. I'd love to use these same idea but sticking more closely to the box art Turquoise/Blues (maybe even Indigo/Purple) but the progression is so much more dark and boring. Is there a way to make it from the realms of Aethermatic Blue to Luxion Purple? I tried and my test models looked ghastly. Modulates from light to dark but no interesting shift in hue.
Thanks. Yes, the half step you used in the second color scheme seems like a good idea. I'm just so fixated on the hue progression you used for the first scheme, I'm trying to come up with my own that works as well. Really excellent contrast color selection and application.
I have a similar color scheme of the red style, but how did you make the red scales blend well with the white skin? I'm using Rakarth Flesh for the skin (Wasn't happy with how Skeleton Horde was looking) and the red (Blood Angels Red) feels too stark comopared to yours on the arms. Great video!
Extremely well done! I'm very intrigued by the metals. So gorgeous, shiny but still muted. Especially the weapons, shield and armor. I have tried to duplicate it multiple times, but it seems my metals just ends out extremely dark and muted. Are there any tips you can give? Btw, thank you for bringing scale75 up on my radar. Absolutely gorgeous colours.
@@cultofpaint it seems that it could be the light setting on my phone causing the video to look different 😅 My armor still seems dark compared to my shield, but I will continue to fiddle around with it. Thanks again for this video
I’m looking to get back into Warhammer after 8 years. I still have my old tomb raider army and I was so sad to see them fade from existence in Age of Sigmar so I’m thinking of getting into Seraphon. I’m thinking a washed out orange for the skin and deep green for the scales with red accents kinda like they would blend into a lush alien rainforest. Would it be smart to start with a pack of skinks to test out my style and get my painting skills back before I commit to a starting pack army?
I've watched this video a bunch of times now, and it's only as I've started my test model that I've noticed that the metals suddenly become black instead of the spray paint colour 😅

100% would watch a vanguard box of seraphon being painted up bang up jobs these
The problem with Lizardmen is there are so many interesting colour options, I find it's impossible to choose one.
Don't choose, make a different colour scheme for each regiment 😊
You don't have to choose. Every spawning has its own color, you can just paint individual squads as separate Spawnings.
I can find just one 😊
make a different color scheme for each spawn (regiment) then :)
and make Heroes another color :)
God me too man
i could watch you paint lizardmen for hours! :D both schemes look amazing
Hours you say!!??
The new Seraphon models are gorgeous. They're excellent canvasses to go crazy on and stuff like washes and contrast paints take to them wonderfully.
Really love these, please please please do an army box when they come out. They are loads of fun to watch
Amazing work! They look amazing good job!
Please do a Vanguard/start collecting box if and when released! I would love to see it!
Thanks Wollie
These bright colours are amazing!
Absolute masterclass on Contrast Paint in a landscape of "SLAPCHOP + ONE THICK COAT" videos. Amazing stuff as always.
Thanks a lot Nick
MOAR Seraphon painting vids! Lol I love your take on these lizards
THanks Cody
PLEASE do more seraphon, I love seeing your take on them!
Definitely would love to see more colour schemes for them! Not a big fan of the standard blue scheme myself, so seeing these has made my day love to see more!
Would love to see more lizardmen! (And AoS content in general, I know it's less popular, but some of the new ranges are amazing)
We love AoS and Old WOrld, there wil ldefinitely be plenty of it over the year, but it might get quite 40k for a little while.
This is great! I would love to see your take on the classic blue scheme 👀
Beautiful scheme and execution on these. Love the yellow/green/blue transition on the hard scale, looks awesome
Really nice choice of colours on the green one. Bravo.
Excellent work, contrast paints certainly make the job easier! The lizard man with the little bells on, we'll call him Jingles!
please do a video on the Vanguard box since its out now and all the models look great. Would love to see you paint them :D
Goddamnit Henry. Now I really want some Lizardmen! Also, can I just say I love the CoP videos as you give us so many principals to use in other ways. Super easy to use this method for other colours and like you said, demons and the like too.
thanks mate
That Yellow-Green one is amazing!!
Fantastic video! Would love to see some more from the box like the space frog wizard!
Keep an eye on Patreon soon!
Love seeing these ideas in practice! Please do more!
Kroxigor or Aggradon!
Amazing models honestly Saurians are the best and their theme is really interesting to a guy like me
would love to see you tackle a vanguard! the sisters combat patrol project was awesome and seeing more of these models and the approach to more organic shapes and advanced use of contrast type paints would be really cool!!!
I think an AoS small army project is long overdue

PLEASEE! Do more of these!
Hell yeah do a full army.. Seraphon are incredibly cool
I propose 24hr marathon of Henry painting just Seraphon using the most colourful color schemes he can up with.
hmmmmm
I am going to keep saying this: I love the army painting videos! And have watched several of them 10+ times.
Love to see this adapted to one of the bigger Seraphon kits like the Carnosaur!
Love the red. I've been wanting to make a red theme. Ladies and gentlemen, this just works.
Please do more of this!
As other people have said, this video is really helpful with helping to bring a colour scheme to life for the lizardboys.
Definitely paint more of these guys! I'm trying to do mine in a purple scheme!
I love them, especially the lime colored seraphon. I need to see one like this with blue and turquoise colors 💙
4:25 in my testing I have found the contrast medium to be quite matt; much more matt that the contrast paints themselves. So matt in fact that it can matt down a glossy ink even in a ratio of 2 ink to 1 contrast medium.
Another absolute banger of an army painting video
With spearhead coming out, I would love to see more Seraphon videos, particularly the kroxigor or krox Warspawned models! I'd like to use armypainter speedpaints or contrast to paint them up quickly, and seeing your take on those would be brilliant!
Andy is painting up a Seraphon spearhead on Patreon
@@cultofpaint Will there be a video on UA-cam eventually?
They look awesome. I might pinch that red scheme for the agradons.
Amazing as usual. Please continue with those scaly guys. Cheers.
Awesome tutorial
Fantastic technique! 😀
The different face colors look strange, and I'm opting out of that. Still great!

Love your work, saw you at gd but you guys were getting swamped. Got to see your amazing dreadnought just before you put him away :) congrats to Andy on his trophy
Ah thanks bud, we were pretty surprised how many people wanted to come say hi
*Stomp, Stomp* Paint more Lizards! Thank you for your great work!
Very cool, really love the finish on them
I need these guys to do the saurus in blue!
I bet these will look good on Tyrranids too!
This was a great video. Love the schemes. It's very hard to not jump in now with the army
Jump
Beautiful work Henry.
Thanks MAtt
Great guide! Really want these models
I've got some Kroxigor on the way after seeing this! Will you be tackling these guys? The models are so nice!
Damn these are cool! Altough I like the green more. I think a kinda more "realistic" look on these new modells looks absolutely fabulous and superior (I blame Miniac's seraphon paint).

Would absolutely watch a vanguard box get painted!
i love the lizardmen, they were my army back during the fantasy battle days. too bad i don't care for age of sigmar because these are very nice saurus warriors
stick them on some square bases and enjoy them
Please paint up the rest of that box for us we would love to see you work on them all!
Will be great on 40k Tyranids as well
Think I’ve watched this video 5 or 6 times now! Henry do you plan to tackle the Kroxigor? I think you’d LOVE those models.
I hope to do some Krox very soon.
@@cultofpaint ooh amazing! I did mine at Starborn but tempted to try some other schemes
Saved for future reference, I have some scale 75 intact colour going to try the green/yellows with this scheme.
Would love to see more lizards painted
I think they'll work very well.
Beautiful. Any good examples of the classic blue on blue seraphon?
Definitely do an army box if they release one 😊
What about the black parts like the spear shaft or the claws, did you work something else on them appart from a black base coat?? They look amazing, congratulations!
Please siiir! I really enjoy these seraphon videos. Can you do the new models??

it does, so actually using a paperclip or something else would be better. I am a bit lazy and not very good at brush care.
This are shiny and regular Deoxys.
They just shown on my feed above this thumbnail, on a poll.
Your video is actually insane, but can you tell me plz the color you use for the black line on the red saurus scales ? Very impressive job, good work !!!
ITs just multiple layers of the Ratling Grime

I guess it’s just a sort of slightly purple off white. So anything like that should be fine.
What magnificent paintwork!
Would you do the same thing for the kroxigor? I dont know much about seraphon but I absolutely LOVE your red scheme with the bright blue face
I think so. I'll be painting some for me soon, so if there's anything significantly different then I'll film it.

I really love The Green Skin but has anyone a good Idea witch color to use for the Mounts if you paint a full Army in this style ?
I like the green one very much. How would you paint the mounts of let's say the Aggradon Lancers with this green warrior scheme?
I will cover that in next week’s video!
I have a similar color scheme of the red style, but how did you make the red scales blend well with the white skin? I'm using Rakarth Flesh for the skin (Wasn't happy with how Skeleton Horde was looking) and the red (Blood Angels Red) feels too stark comopared to yours on the arms. Great video!

great ! moaaar !!!
That first colour scheme is stunning! Would it work over a grey basecoat instead of wraithbone?
i think the wraithbone is important for the chest/belly colour. Not sure how well that would go over grey.
Thanks man, you've ended weeks of indecision on a paint scheme in minutes!
I’m looking to get back into Warhammer after 8 years. I still have my old tomb raider army and I was so sad to see them fade from existence in Age of Sigmar so I’m thinking of getting into Seraphon. I’m thinking a washed out orange for the skin and deep green for the scales with red accents kinda like they would blend into a lush alien rainforest. Would it be smart to start with a pack of skinks to test out my style and get my painting skills back before I commit to a starting pack army?
Warhammer fantasy is coming back out very soon and Tomb Kings are one of the featured armies. So you may want to wait for that??
I've watched this video a bunch of times now, and it's only as I've started my test model that I've noticed that the metals suddenly become black instead of the spray paint colour 😅
Please can you show how to paint these using the airbrush more and to go a bit faster.
I might do one using the airbrush in the future.
@@cultofpaint that would be great. I have your signature airbrush and a Seraphon box arriving next week. That would be perfect! 🙏
