Skull Scarabs, Fat Lil' Lizard, and Pea-phoenix (Forge of Ice Feb)

This batch for the Forge of Ice February event has three beasts of varying severity.



First up is a 40mm Skull Scarab swarm. The original swarm I painted a million years ago (I also did a couple of the 20mm variants but couldn't find them) had a variety of colors but this time I decided to go with all white scarabs (because it was quicker and easier). Unwary adventurers will meet a quick end when confronted with this large swarm...




Next is a Pea-Phoenix (peacock, but red, another version with the tailfeathers on display was painted a million years ago but can't be found). It was based on a 25x40mm because of the long tail. this is such a nice sculpt by Sandra Garrity. We see it next to one of the sleepy guards for scale reference.




Finally we have this fat lil' lizard. He's kinda gross and pretty cool. The earlier fat lil' lizard and this guy actually look like they're the same species, but the coloration varies widely in this species based on their diet and what environment they live in. I kinda like the purple guy a little better and might stoop to stripping it to repaint- maybe not.


More Forge of Ice minis  to come!
